I’ve met a few professionals named Brooklyn. People seemed to take them seriously. I certainly did. I make my decisions based on qualifications, not names. If someone’s opportunities to earn those qualifications is blocked because the admissions or hiring committee thinks the name is “Jersey Shore”, that’s discrimination.

Hudson, Chelsea, Randall, Ward, Lex, Waverly, Rose, Beca, and Nolita are all better names

Fun fact. The Bronx is so called because a long time ago a lot of the land was owned by Bronck.

Bronck's land!

I like Brook(e) and Lynn, but combined it always sounds like a hillbilly name even though it's supposed to be so urban(e).

I think it's pretty, although I wouldn't choose it myself.

I had a student once named Brookland which might be the most awesome D name ever.
