History & Origin

Brittiney is a variant of Brittany, taken from the French region Brittany — home of the Bretons, so 'land of the Britons'. The -iney spelling is pure late-twentieth-century fashion, one of dozens of forms that bloomed as Brittany peaked.

It was always uncommon in the shadow of Brittany and Britney, and it reads unmistakably of the 1980s and 1990s. A Brittiney from its peak is now in her thirties.

Did you know? Brittany, the region behind the name, was settled by Britons who crossed the Channel, which is exactly why it means 'land of the Britons'.
