Meaning & Story
An English place-name surname meaning Brant's son — evoking the entrepreneurial spirit of Richard Branson and a bold, sky's-the-limit attitude.
Branson is a name that thinks big. Whether the association is with the historic Missouri town on Table Rock Lake or with Sir Richard Branson — the Virgin founder who has sent rockets into space — Branson suggests a dog with ambitions well beyond the backyard fence. The name has a warm, approachable Southern quality that balances out the ambitious undertone perfectly. For a confident, energetic dog who is always launching new schemes (usually involving the trash can or the neighbor's garden), Branson is an inspired choice.
