History & Origin

Brittley combines Britt, a short form of Brittany or Bridget, with the -ley suffix. Bridget itself comes from the Irish Brighid, 'exalted one,' lending the name an old Celtic root.

It stayed rare, given to only about fifteen girls a year around its early-nineteen-nineties peak. A girl named Brittley then is in her thirties today.

Did you know? The -ley ending turned many first names into breezy, surname-style forms in the nineteen-nineties, and Brittley is the Britt branch of that trend.
