feminine · English (Modern) origin
Breann is a modern English feminine name that arose as a variant spelling of Brianne, itself the feminine form of Brian. Brian is generally traced to an Old Celtic root meaning high or noble, though some scholars connect it to a Proto-Celtic word meaning hill or elevated place. The name gained popularity in English-speaking countries during the late twentieth century alongside other feminine forms such as Briana, Brianna, and Breanna.
