The Saju view
Counted by its first sound, Braxton is a water name, since that sound is made with the lips. In Saju, Braxton carries fire. That makes it a natural choice for charts where fire is the thinnest of the five elements. Braxton supports earth from behind: its fire sound is the traditional source of that element. A chart that already holds plenty of fire is better served by another name, since Braxton would add to it.
