Maybe these two English names can help:
BRANDON dweller at the beacon hill.
BRANDT farmer on land cleared by burning.
Often the 't' and the 'd' are interchangeable ... if I had to guess, I'd say it means something like "town at the top of a hill" or perhaps "town that was founded on land cleared by burning" ...just a guess ...
