History & Origin

Brittiny is a spelling of Brittany, the region of France settled by Celtic Britons and long a place name before it became a girl's name. It peaked around 1989 amid the enormous Brittany wave, always a minority form.

A Brittiny from the peak is now in her late thirties, unmistakably a child of the late-80s naming boom. The many spellings have faded together, and this one reads as a period marker rather than a revival candidate.

Did you know? Brittiny is one of dozens of Brittany respellings — Brittney, Britany, Brittani — that multiplied in the late 1980s as the name became one of the decade's biggest hits.
