I really don't like it. It doesn't look or sound good. It reminds me of an annoying man I know called Bruno and also the little boy in The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.

I like it (it's on my PNL) but it's strictly gp. I would never use it in real life.

Although my first impression of this name was the hound dog in Cinderella, I still don't think a child would be teased by it (at least I can't think of any teasing nicknames)... although I'm not entirely sure now. Kids can think of the meanest things nowadays.

It's pretty cool, but I confess I wouldn't use it myself. I could see myself calling some good ol boy Bruce by the nn Bruno. Good-naturedly so.

I don't like it, mainly to do with bad associations with a girl named Bruna. I also don't like the sounds of it (it seems very harsh and I personally prefer softer sounding names).

I like it in spite of the fact the only one I knew was an idiot. :-D Anyway, the name is cool and uncommon.

I quite like it in German!
I wouldn't use it myself, but it'd be nice to see on someone else's child.
