| My son goes to school with a Brensen. I like that better than Bronson. |

I get that as a parent YOU want something a little different. I assume you want your friends to think you're super cool to have made up such an unique name. It is a dumb name and will make him stand out in a way that's totally beyond his control. Please think about what your future child might want. Think about how it is going to feel to have to correct people when they mispronounce his name or say it with that upspeak "am i getting this right?" tone. Or respond to the inevitable "like Charles Bronson...?" question. Think about the way you are likely to raise him and who, based on your family and traditions and expectations he is likely to be (and yes, I know we may never get most of that prediction right) and ask is a "different" name is likely to suit that likely personality. Giving a kid a different name isn't going to make him special -- the way you raise him might. |

It's not really my style, but this is a very nice name. |

| I would think of Branson, Missouri. Or Charles Bronson. |

| The Grey will be just as dated in ten years as all those houses painted “neutral grey.” Oh, and all your friends and family will make so much fun of you behind your back. |

| I know someone who named their kid Bronson, but it was the mom's maiden name so it sort of made sense. But it's still weird. |

Bronson Grey sounds like something from the Benjamin Moore Historical Colors line. |

| Bronson Grey sounds like a stage name for a porn star. |

+1 It's got a very "Impregnated by the CEO" Harlequin vibe to me. Isn't this kind of the name of the 50 shades guy? |

| I think "Bronson Grey" was the Sherwin Williams color of the year in 2016. |
