Hey bees!

I recently saw a post on popsugar listing 100 unique names that people have been loving. There were definitely some names on the list that I have never heard of. There were also a couple I added to my top 100 fav lists.

I stumbled across [name\_f]Bronwyn[/name\_f] for a girl, which I thought was really pretty and unique. Reminds me a bit of my maiden name [name\_m]Brown[/name\_m]. What do you guys think of it? Not sure I love the meaning, “white breast.”

I also stumbled upon [name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m] for a boy. Not even sure how to pronounce this one. But my husbands name is [name\_m]Austin[/name\_m], so it grabbed my attention.

So, what do you guys think? I’ll link the post below in case you want to check it out!

I love [name\_f]Bronwyn[/name\_f], but prefer the spelling [name\_f]Bronwen[/name\_f]. Typically, in the Welsh language, “wyn” is masculine, while “wen” is feminine. [name\_f]Branwen[/name\_f] (with an “a”) was on our list, after the character from Welsh mythology. [name\_f]Bronwen[/name\_f]/wyn would be a great option to honor your maiden name, [name\_m]Brown[/name\_m].

[name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m] is nice. I like [name\_m]Augustin[/name\_m] or [name\_m]Augustus[/name\_m], too.

I really like [name\_f]Bronwyn[/name\_f], but the meaning… If I ever found out my name meant that, I wouldn’t be too happy.  
[name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m] is usually pronounced ah-goos-TEEN. It is very popular in Hispanic countries, specially in South [name\_u]America[/name\_u].

Ahh interesting. I like the spelling [name\_f]Bronwen[/name\_f], too. [name\_f]Branwen[/name\_f] is pretty.

I think I prefer [name\_m]Augustin[/name\_m] over [name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m]… but just found the name [name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m] so interesting.

I agree - don’t think I can get over the meaning!

I never would have guessed [name\_m]Agustin[/name\_m] was pronounced that way. Thank you for sharing!

[name\_m]Hi[/name\_m], just wanted to say my name is [name\_f]Bronwyn[/name\_f] and it has served me well! It often gets misspelled ‘Brownyn’ which I never quite understood and has I have gotten older most people call me ‘[name\_m]Bron[/name\_m].’ The meaning ‘white breast’ translates to ‘fair skin’. But I did always think growing up that I would have preferred ‘[name\_f]Bronwen[/name\_f]’- to me it just seemed prettier! Overall I always liked my name though! Thought the different perspective might help 🙂
