[Opinions] Re: Brian
My grandfather's name is Brian and he was born in 1939 :)I would use it as a middle name to honour him.

Kudos to your great-grandparents for being ahead of the times---they were trendsetters! Yep, if I'd been alive in 1939, I would have wholly approved.

ActuallyHere in the UK a Brian born in the 1930s is pretty much 'trendy'. I'd expect a Brian to be in his 60s or 70s. It seems it was falling out of favour here when it was becoming more popular in the US.

Yeah, it did occur to me that Mireio might not be in the US and that our popularity trends wouldn't apply. Occurred to me too late, though.

Yeah, I am in the UK. Brian definitely is more of an 'older' name here.
