History & Origin

Bryannah is a modern American respelling of Briana, the feminine of the Celtic Brian, 'high, noble.' It appears in United States records from around 1995 and reached its small high near 2003, in the thick of the Brianna craze. Given to only a couple dozen girls a year, this particular spelling stayed rare.

A girl named Bryannah near that early-two-thousands high is a young adult today, part of the huge Brianna generation. It is one of many spellings rather than a revival; parents who like the sound usually settle on Brianna or Briana.

Did you know? Bryannah loads Briana with an extra Y and a final H, a maximalist spelling from the same era that gave us Brianna, Bryanna and Breanna.
