We actually know one other female Brogan a year older than her (mid-twenties, U.S.) and my mom’s friend used it as a middle name for her own daughter a few years later. The story is my parents could agree on Brogan for a boy, but had nothing for a girl until my mom saw an article about a female Brogan and decided it was Brogan either way. We’ve never called her “Bro”, occasionally Bee though. Overall people comment on how unusual it is, or mishear it for Morgan. I really don’t think it’s as horrible as these other comments are making it seem. Not for everyone, Brogan has definitely had a love/hate relationship with it both because of how uncommon it is and a phase where she wanted a more girly first name, but I wouldn’t be upset had I been given the name and not her.
