Sorry I’ve only come across Brecken as a boy’s name.

Sorry, but I also think it is more of a boys name.

I agree with pp that Brecken is very boyish. I would advice pairing it with a very feminine mn:
Brecken Annabelle
Brecken Victoria
Brecken Olivia
Brecken Elaina
Brecken Leanna
Brecken Serena
Brecken Marianne
Brecken Sylvia
Brecken Sophia
Brecken Juliette
Brecken Avalon
Brecken Amie

I like Breckyn (y’s always make names more feminine).
What about Breckyn Olivia, Breckyn Elizabeth, or Breckyn Elyse?
GL!

I plan to name my boy this--I liked it ever since I heard of the actor Breckin Meyer. I thought for sure that there was no way this name would become feminine like so many other boy names. Please don’t do it! It seems like no boy names are safe anymore!

Breckin is used more as a boys name, but it is also a girls name. I like it.

Sorry, it wouldn’t be my choice.

I agree to spell it with a y

Breckan is a boys name isnt it. Even if you spell it differently its still sounds the same and makes boys with that name very insecure

I first heard this name from the actor Breckin Meyer. I, too, like the name Brecken for a girl and would like to name a future daughter Brecken. Go for it!!

Brecken is a boys name. Breckin is a unisex name. If you really hate your daughter because you wish she was a boy, just go ahead and name her MadiSON.

I named my daughter breckan. I chose the "a" to keep it more feminine. Honestly like it better as a girls name but im biased. Didnt hear about the the from actors but met a young lady by same name and spelling.

My son’s name is Brecken..I guess it sounded more like a boy name to me.

As a Brecken (female, mind you -.-) IT yes. CAN BE A GIRL’S Name. I am living proof.

Our daughters name is Brecken. We used Allece as her middle name and loved how it sounded.

My name is Breckin and a female 25, and I absolutely love my name. It was the best thing my parents did giving me this name. When I do have a daughter I plan on naming her after me.
