Meanings

The name originates as a variant of the Irish masculine given name, Brendan, meaning "raven", "prince", or "brave." It is derived from the Gaelic name Breandán, which is in turn derived from the earlier Old Irish Brénainn. The mediaeval Latin form of the name, Brendanus, has also influenced the modern English and Irish forms. The Old Welsh breenhin is the root of the name, meaning Prince, Chieftain or crow.
The name also originates from the English surname Brandon. This surname can be derived from any of the numerous placenames in England so-named which are composed of two elements derived from the Old English language. The first element means "broom", "gorse"; and the second means "hill". There are several variant spellings of the given name Brandon; there is probably also a feminine variant of the name. Brandon is considered to be a masculine name; however, in the United States during the 1980s, the name cracked the top 1,000th names recorded for female births; the name has since then fallen out of the top 1,000 female baby names.

Derived from a surname and place name based on the Old English for hill covered with broom. Broom is a prolific weed. Means: from the beacon hill. Derived from a place name, means: hill covered with broom; variant of Brendan.
