Brana

Give baby a name with many beautiful meanings and possible roots, like Brana. Typically given to girls, Brana could be a nickname for Branka, be a variation of Briana, or come from the Old Norse term brattr. Branka is a feminine form of Branko, a diminutive of Branislav or Branimir, with Slavic elements meaning “protection,” “glory,” and “peace.” Brana could also be a version of the Irish moniker Briana, which comes from Brian, signifying “hill, high,” and “might, power” with Celtic elements. The Old Norse term brattr, translating to “steep,” may also be the root. Perhaps baby Brana will be a great protector of all their friends and a peacemaker in conflicts. Or maybe they’ll be a powerhouse in a leading company. Regardless of what path baby chooses, Brana is a majestic name.
