Thing is I've NEVER met a Brandy born after the mid-80s and never met a Brianna born before that (oldest Brianna I can think of was born in 95... AFTER the youngest Brandy I can think of would have been born)... Brittany wasn't that common before Brandy and neither was Brooke (the last of which I think I've met a total of 2) in Canada though it seems to have hit a bit of a wave in the States in the early 80s before the latter, longer wave (was Brooke Shields popular at that time? I don't remember because I didn't really care)... Brandy seems to have preceded these in the Br trend. Brittany was more of a late 80s and early 90s trend. Guess Brianna came up out of nowhere in the mid-70s, built up some steam in the 80s and hit it big in the 90s. Brandy definitely had its spike in the 70s and early 80s... so the other Br names followed Brandy. Glad my parents didn't think I should be named after booze.
