An uncommon pick — distinctive and rare.
A surname originating as a matronymic.
Bridgett is a girl's baby name of Irish origin, an alternate spelling of Bridget derived from the Celtic goddess Brigid whose name means 'strength' or 'exalted one.' Saint Brigid of Kildare, one of Ireland's patron saints, made this name a cornerstone of Irish Catholic tradition for over a millennium.
Bridgett was #2328 twenty years ago and has since drifted to #9017, but its charm endures.
