Brynn

Brynn lands in a single clean syllable, the kind of name that snaps shut like a locket. A modern feminine spin on the Welsh Bryn, meaning hill, it borrows the heather-and-stone feel of its source while stepping into something brighter and American. The double-n gives it a soft landing, a little hush after the quick vowel. It surfaced steadily through the 2000s alongside Rhys and Finley as parents reached for Celtic crispness, and now sits at rank 384 in the U.S. Tomboyish without trying, lyrical without fuss, it carries its small geography with quiet confidence.
