What is distinctly feminine about scrambling shrubs with thorns? I am sincerely curious. Or is it just the sounds? I can't think of any other standard girl name that ends in -ar.

Briar? Like the name of the ice cream?
Breyers ice cream gives me the shits...just like your child's God-awful name does.

I honestly don't know what gender I would think if I heard the name.

I didn't have the viscerally negative reaction of other pps here bit definitely only acceptable for a girl. It's decidedly feminine and the only context I know it in (other than briar fox/bear where it's not their name really) is sleeping beauty.

Much better to associate the child with ice cream. Seriously, Inthink of Briar Rose too, and in generally have pemblems naming a child for a Disney princess (and feel sorry for all of the Elsas of the world).
