Brynden is a unique and historical given name, derived from Old Welsh elements 'bri' meaning 'honour' and 'din' meaning 'fort'. It was first popularized through the character Brynden Rivers in George R.R. Martin's 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series.
The name Brynden experienced varied popularity over time, with peaks occurring in certain years such as 2002 (16 births) and 2012 (19 births).
