Brianna: Girls Baby Name Meaning

Brianna Baby Name

The meaning of the name Brianna is ‘strong, virtuous and honorable’.

Brianna takes its origins from the Irish masculine name Brian; it is a spelling variant of Briana. Brian is a derivation from an Old Celtic-Gaelic word ‘brígh’ meaning ‘noble, high’ most likely from the ancient Celtic element ‘bre’ meaning ‘hill’. 

Brian became a popular name in Ireland during the Middle Ages thanks to Brian Boru, the last High King of Éire. Interestingly, the female equivalent of Brian (Briana) dates back to the late 16th century as evidenced by English poet Edmund Spenser’s usage of the name in his epic The Faerie Queene (1590). 

Variant spellings are Brianna, Breanna, Breanne, Brianne, Briana, Brina, and Bryanna.

Despite her Irish influence, Brianna is mainly used in the United States, taking off in popularity during the 1970s.

Famous people who share the name Brianna:

Brianna Glenn (American long jumper); Brianna Keilar (American journalist); Brianna Wu (American video game developer and activist).
