Bronwyne is Welsh in Origin.
Bronwyne is a modern, ornamental spelling of the Welsh name Bronwen/Bronwyn, built from bron “breast, bosom” and gwen “white, fair, blessed.” The traditional feminine form in Welsh is Bronwen; Bronwyn arose as an English-language adaptation and became widely recognized in the 20th century. The meaning is usually rendered “fair-bosomed,” “white-breasted,” or more figuratively “pure, blessed.”
As a variant, Bronwyne is rare but intelligible across the Anglophone world, especially in Wales, England, Australia, and New Zealand, where Bronwyn saw its greatest mid‑century use. The spelling with final -e adds a decorative flourish without altering the usual pronunciation (BRON-win). Established variants include Bronwen (f.), Bronwyn, Bronwynne, and Bronwynn; short forms Bron, Bronnie, and Wyn/Win are common. Note that Branwen - though famous from the Mabinogion - is a different Welsh name (“raven, blessed”) and not a form of Bronwyne.
Bronwyne is far from common. In all, it turns up just 29 times, across 3 countries.
