Old Japan had a central village and a slightly remote village, and the person who lived in the central village gave it with Nakamura.

I think that I am interesting to use it as a nickname if "Brennan?Portz?" is the name of the origin same as Nakamura.
It's not a good translation, though, because Brennan means "one teardrop" and Portz means something like "a quarrelsome person."
