Bree as a NN is okay but I don't like it as a name all on its own.

My niece is Brianna Nicole so that's what the name brings to mind.

mom to Christopher and Nicholas

auntie to Hailey and Brianna

Well... a couple of things:


1. I'm not sure how it's supposed to be pronounced. On first look, I would just assume it's pronounced as it is spelled: BREE (pronounced like Brie, the cheese).


However, I recall hearing about an actress named Cree Summer, and I believe she pronounces her name as Cray-ay, or something like that, not CREE ("creed" w/out the "d" at the end).


So then I might think it's pronounced: Bray-ay? Well, I don't particularly care for that pronunciation if that's it.


2. If my first thought about pronunciation is right (BREE)--I'm not too fond of it b/c it reminds me of the cheese.


Just some thoughts, b/c I thought these were a little similar in style somehow...what about:


Briar


Blythe
