Bryony is definitely no, and Cecily maaaaaaaaaybeeeeee but I kind of like Bram.
Cheering on all of my 3T ladies! DX with PCOS - 11/2012 DH S/A & HSG - Normal - Too many rounds of Clomid = BFNs - New RE 5/2014 - Repeat Testing - Losing 40lbs before injects/IUI
Cecily is cute (but not with the nn ceecee). Bryony looks made up and I'm not sure how to even say it. I have a pet named Byron so I keep seeing Byrony. Bram looks made up to me too, IMO. Maybe ok as a nn, but not as a real name.
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!
T-TTC since Dec 2008. PCOS/nonexistant cycles(anovulation) and endo. HSG in '10 revealed both tubes blocked. Lap surgery in Dec '10 to correct. Failed Clomid/IUI and injectable(Bravelle)/IUI cycles so far.
Was someone watching/reading Atonement?? That's the only place I've ever seen/heard the name Briony (<--spelled that way) before. (For those uncertain, it's pronounced BREE-o-nee.)
Cecily is pretty. I kind of like it and its variations (Cecilia/Celia).
Bram reminds me of Dracula's author. I'm not sure about it either way.
TTC since July 2012

Ahh.. that helps. I was thinking "br-eye-oh-nee". I still don't like it, but Briony looks better and the correct pronunciation does help a teeny bit. Still not a fan though lol

The girl I went to school with named Bryony had the br-eye-oh-nee pronunciation.

Br-eye-oh-nee is the pronunciation I'm familiar with. I have heard it is a more common British name. Briony is a variant spelling, but the plant is spelled Bryony which makes me prefer it that way.
I am 90% set on a potential future girl being named Corinne though. Tessa is the other option and if we did go with that one she would be Tessa Corinne.
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love.

I see now (I looked it up again). It's almost like pronouncing "Brian" with a 'y' on the end. I like that it's different, but DH would never go for it (I ran Isla by him and he said it sounded way too weird, 8-| )

Actually, for those uncertain it's NOT usually pronounced "Bree-o-nee."

Seriously rolling my eyes right now. Doesn't matter though, because it's ugly.
I also think of the Philly weather woman when I hear Cecily, but I do think it's cute. Bryony is NMS. Bram makes me think of Dracula (Bram Stoker), and I would never give it to a girl, even as a nn. Maybe a boy, but HIGHLY unlikely.
