Origin: Irish

Meaning: high; exalted; strength; vigor; virtue

Bri is an Irish gender-neutral name whose simple, sweet sound hides a mighty countenance. Born from the Irish brígh, Bri lays claim to its long list of admirable attributes, most notably "strength," "vigor," and virtue." Perhaps its most popular meaning is "exalted" or “high” cementing Bri's place as a variation of the well-known Brian. Though there is great merit in sharing the company of bearers like legendary Brian Boru—the last High King of Éire—Bri possesses a unique humility thanks to its minimalistic style. Definitely a name not to be underestimated.
