Breigh Origin and Meaning

The name Breigh is a girl's name.

Breigh is a contemporary feminine name that appears to be a creative spelling variation of Brea or Bree. These shorter names often derive from the Irish Brigid (meaning 'strength' or 'virtue') or can be short forms of Brianna or Gabrielle. The distinctive spelling with 'eigh' gives the name a unique visual appeal while maintaining the pronunciation of 'bray' or 'bree.' Breigh emerged primarily in the late 20th and early 21st centuries as parents increasingly sought individualized spellings for traditional names. While not among the most common names, Breigh appeals to parents looking for something short, modern, and distinctive with a touch of Irish heritage incorporated through its innovative spelling.
