"Brianna" is an extremely popular name for today's white female students.

There are two Briannas belonging to families in our general neighborhood; both girls are in their early teens. That would place the possible genesis of the name to the late 1980s or a bit earlier.

Perhaps further back:

Briana English version of the male name Brian from the Old Celtic meaning noble. Other forms include Brianna/Brianne.


It appears to be a feminine version of Brian
