feminine · English (Modern) origin
Breanne is a modern English feminine name, most likely formed as a blend of Brenda or Brianna with the popular feminine suffix -anne. It functions effectively as an elaboration of the Celtic root bréan or brigh, meaning high or noble, carried into English through Irish and Scottish Gaelic naming traditions. The name gained currency in North America during the latter half of the twentieth century alongside similar blended forms. Closely related names include Brianna, Briana, and Breanna.
