[Opinions] Brandy
How bad is Brandy?
I must say I sort of like it but it seems like those universally hated names.
I know it's alcohol but it gives me more of a "hobbit sitting in front of a fireplace telling stories and sipping brandy while the autumn leaves are falling" vibe than a "drunk" vibe. Alcohol is part of many cultures and rituals after all and brandy seems like more of an armchair and fireplace drink than a getting drunk sort of drink.
It gives me a warm autumnal vibe.
Thoughts?
I can't stand Brandi and Brandee or Brandie but Brandy is nice to me.

I honestly think it’s too bad for me to use, but I still kind of like it.
Not a favorite but it's not bad. I think it has a pretty sound. I don't think so much of the liquor than I do the singer, who I was a big fan of in the 90s.
It's bad
It's irredeemably tacky to me, which can, of course, be fun depending on your intentions.
I also think the name sounds ugly (too whiny).

Don't like it at all
Well first things first, it definitely reminds me of the singer and actress. She’s not a bad person so the namesake isn’t horrible.
Brandy does give me a warm autumn vibe though as you said.
I also don’t care for the spellings Brandi, Brandee, or Brandie. It’s just ugly.
The name itself is fine. Warm, and sweet. I don’t really see anything wrong with it. Even the fact it’s the name of an alcohol doesn’t bother me. Names like Jameson, Midori and stuff are still used regardless.
I actually knew some European sibset with alcoholic middle names. Jameson, Sherry, and Burgundy. Just not so much in an obvious way. The family definitely liked colors and wine. I kind of have a soft spot for those types of names.
