as like the name brian, likely from bre came to associate with the suffix 'n'
brenley could be from bre
more of 'hill meadow/grove'
Modernly I think take random sylables and throw them together and we, with interest in such things, try to create a meaning.
Brenley though, doesn't seem as far fetched a name does it? It seems like it could be quiet common, from the sound of it.

Historical linguistics! As I said, in the past the R sound moved around in words like brid = bird or bride.
I found this on www.ask.co.uk when I entered: origin: Brentwood. OK, it's still got a T in it, but that doesn't prove much.
g 'burning', is a descriptive of the name 'Burnt Wood'. 'Fide' represents our faith in God, our fellow men and our future. >
