For nerds like me. The female name is short for Brianna or Gabriella. The cheese name is from the French region of Brie where it originated in. That region got its name from the Gaulish word briga meaning "hill" or "height".
Also, if it isn't from the Brie region of France, it's not technically Brie. It's sparkling cheese.
Pretty sure brie is named after the village in LotR
Always goes back to the cheese as the real reason
