Bryanna

Bryanna is a feminine given name. It is a variant spelling of Brianna, which originated as a feminine form of Brian, derived from the Old Gaelic name Brían, meaning noble or strong.

The name has been popularised in English-speaking countries through its resemblance to Brianna and through modern naming trends that favor -anna endings. Bryanna belongs to a broader family of names built from Brian by adding feminine endings such as -anna. Variants include Brianna, Briana, Bryanne, Bryana, and Bryanna itself. Pronunciations typically include bree-AN-uh or bri-AN-uh, with stress on the second syllable.

Usage: Bryanna is less common than Brianna in most datasets and is often described as a modern or alternative spelling. It appears in baby-name records primarily in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, especially in the United States and Canada, though it has not achieved the same level of popularity as Brianna.
