Bri
b-ri
US Popularity:15336
Origin:Irish
Meaning:Strength, power, virtue; Exalted one
Bri is an Irish gender-neutral name whose simple, sweet sound hides a mighty countenance. Born from the Irish brígh, Bri lays claim to its long list of admirable attributes, most notably "strength," "power," and “virtue." Perhaps its most popular meaning is "exalted one." Bri is also considered a version of names that feature the element bri, like Brian, Brianna, and Gabriella. Though there is great merit in sharing the company of bearers like legendary Brian Boru—the last High King of Éire—Bri possesses a unique humility thanks to its minimalistic style. Definitely a name not to be underestimated.
