Brigette is a feminine name representing a French-influenced variant of Bridget, which derives from the Irish name Brighid, meaning 'exalted one' or 'strength.' The original Brighid was an important Celtic goddess associated with poetry, healing, and craftsmanship, later syncretized with Saint Brigid of Kildare. This particular spelling with 'g' instead of 'd' and the French-style '-ette' ending gives the name a sophisticated, continental flair while maintaining its Celtic heritage. Brigette enjoyed modest popularity in the mid-20th century but remains less common than the traditional Bridget or Brigid forms. The name carries associations of strength, creativity, and elegance, making it appeal to parents seeking a name with historical depth, feminine charm, and a slightly distinctive spelling.
