| FOR REAL: Brendan is and anglicization of Breannain, the name of one of Ireland's three patron saints (the other two being Patrick and Brigid), but the name's origins come from a Welsh word meaning "prince." The English form, Brendan and the modern Irish form, Breandán come from the Latinized version of Breannain, which is Brendanus. | |||||
