Meaning and history

Brande is a rare English given name that may be a spelling variant of Brandy or a transfer from a surname. Brandy as a personal name comes from the alcoholic drink, whose English word abbreviates Dutch brandewijn, “burnt wine.” As a surname, Brande can have unrelated Germanic or locational roots. The exact origin therefore depends on the family. Prominent real-life bearers using Brande as a given name are limited, so broader historical claims should be avoided.
