Probably the most famous member of the family was Meriadoc Brandybuck, who was part of the Company of the Ring.
'Brandybuck' is an anglicisation of this family's actual name, which was Brandagamba (relating to the actual river-name Branda-nîn).
Given that the Brandybucks arose from a famous ancestor actually named 'Bucca', it would seem natural to presume that the element bucca is the one intended.
