Brown
English origin
“Derived from the Old English 'brun,' referring to the color brown, traditionally used as a descriptive surname for someone with brown hair or clothing. Brown as a given name is bold and minimalist, grounding and earthy in character. While unconventional as a first name, it reflects contemporary trends toward surname-as-given-name choices.”
