User Comments about the name Brian
Comment left Feb 24, 2010: "I too was named after Brian Keith. Kinda funny. When I was younger I didn't like the name, but it sure beat my parent's original idea of combining my grandfathers' names (Jacob and Edward = Jayward). I love my name now. I named my second son Brian, but gave him a different middle name so he wouldn't be called Junior." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Feb 07, 2010: "after reading all this, i feel surrealistically detached to my name and question my identity." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 27, 2009: "My name is Brian, and for some strange reason when people type emials to me they spell it as BRAIN, I think spelling the human "brain" just seems more subconciously acceptable as the way to spell it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Dec 22, 2009: "I love the fact that my name is sometimes (often actually) spelled Brain. I was born in 1971, at the peak of the name's popularity. I remember at least three kids in every class sharing my name. They were nerds, and I guess so was I. We were all three always the smartest in the class." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 13, 2009: "My name is Brian. Yes people do spell it wrong and say Bryan or Brain for some reason. I got my name from an actor named Brian Keith. Some reason my mother liked this guy when i was born in 1979 named Brian Keith for his acting or that he was hot. I would take it as he was hot..." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Mar 05, 2009: "I meet people all the time with the name Brian, however sometimes you find those that spell it with a "y". I find it annoying when people assume I spell it with the Y, hello....its not RYAN. Regardless, it's a great name and I am very happy my parents chose it. My middle name is James, so as a kid i went by Bee-ggghh. A play on BJ." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jul 20, 2008: "My name is Brian and I was born May 17th 1978 in Minnesota. Growing up with this name, I'm neutral about it and to be honest I feel kind of awkward with it. It just, IMHO, seem like a little boy's name and I don't feel it is strong or masculine like David or Richard.
For those wondering, Brian means High, Noble, Strong, Virtuous." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 15, 2008: "My boyfriends name is Brian. He's really strong, in many ways. He plays lots of sports so he's physically strong. He's also very mentally strong, as he doesn't let what people say get to him. And the best strength i think he has is the strength to deal with me on a constant basis. Haha. Takes a lot to deal with me :P
I love him to death." (Report as inappropriate)
