Brighton

Brighton is a boy's and girl's baby name of Old English origin, from the English coastal city whose name derives from Beorhthelm's tun, meaning 'Beorhthelm's settlement' or 'bright town.' Brighton became a fashionable resort under the Prince Regent in the early 19th century.

As a given name, Brighton has a breezy, coastal sophistication — it evokes Regency-era glamour and seaside freshness, with a confident sound that sits perfectly in the contemporary surname-names trend.
