I find it very hard to find an'thing with this name on it. This is the name of my son who was born'two and a half months premature and has had too many complications to explain now but all in all he has been'there for almost 8 months I dont know the meaning of this name all it has is family ties to it. If there is no meaning I think It'should mean fighter, in'the dictionary this is described as a person who goes through trials and persever's. My son has more heart than many of us could ever dream about having and its sad I cant have his name on a key chain of picture frame or an'thing of the kind.
I obviously loved it. My daughter who was born in 2020 is named Britton. She also gets Brighton or Brittany a lot.
My mother named me Britton, I always loved it and people always found It'so strange yet appealing. In all my twenty years walking this earth, I only met one Britton, she was very old. Surprisingly, people made attempts at giving my nick names like Brit, Brick, or Britti, but most people always preferred just saying Britton. i've n'ticed a lot of people always say Bright-in at first, annoying lol. I'm like It's like the country, but better and spelled "B to the R to the I Double T with an O N"
