Britte

Britte is a masculine name with Germanic and Scandinavian roots. It appears to be a masculine variant of the more commonly feminine Britta or Britt, which derive from the Latin name Brigitta (a form of Bridget). The name ultimately connects to the Celtic goddess Brigid, associated with poetry, healing, and smithcraft. While uncommon as a masculine name in most English-speaking countries, Britte may be found more frequently in Northern European regions. The name carries connotations of strength and bright energy, reflecting its etymological connection to the Old Norse 'bright' or 'exalted one.' Its rarity as a masculine choice gives it a distinctive quality for boys.

Britte is also given to girls.

Pronounced BRIT-uh.

As of October 2026, Britte ranked #7479 in US births in 1981 SSA.
