Bronagh is an Irish feminine given name derived from the Irish language word "bronach" meaning sorrowful. It is also associated with the Irish goddess Brigid, often referred to as St. Brigid in Christian tradition. Bronagh is typically pronounced /ˈbɹɒnə/ or /ˈbɹɔːnə/, with emphasis on the first syllable and a long 'a' sound similar to that in "father". The name gained popularity during the Celtic Revival of the late 19th century, and its usage has continued since then. It is most commonly found in Ireland but can also be encountered among Irish communities worldwide.
