History & Origin

Brittaney is one of the blended spellings thrown up by the Brittany craze, which drew on the Breton region settled by Britons. It flourished briefly and peaked around 1989, then fell away with the whole family.

A Brittaney from her peak is now in her mid-thirties, an early-nineties Millennial name. The elaborated spelling reads as of its moment; with the Brittany trend dormant, Brittaney has no active revival.

Did you know? Brittaney peaked at the end of the eighties, a hybrid spelling produced by parents splitting the difference between Brittany and Brittney.
