Brandy is a feminine given name. It is possible that the name is derived from the Dutch language brandewijn, meaning "burned wine" (i.e. the alcoholic drink brandy), or "brandewine"; however, it is more likely a feminine form of Brandon.
1650s, abbreviation of brandywine (1620s) from Dutch brandewijn "burnt wine," so called because it is distilled (compare German cognate Branntwein and Czech palenka "brandy," from paliti "to burn"). The Brandywine Creek in Pennsylvania, site of a Revolutionary War battle, supposedly so named by the Dutch for the color of its waters.
Burnt wine; the name of the distilled wine. From the English word brandy for the alcoholic drink, ultimately from Dutch brandewijn, burnt wine.
