Bryton

Meaning of Bryton

Bryton is a contemporary English masculine name, likely a variant of Brighton, itself derived from the Old English elements beorht (“bright”) and tūn (“settlement”). Pronounced BRY-tuhn (/ˈbraɪtən/), it conveys a clean, modern feel while retaining a discreet nod to its Anglo-Saxon roots. In the United States, Bryton has held a modest yet steady position—forty newborns in 2024 placed it at rank 884—underscoring a broader trend toward names that strike a balance between tradition and individuality. Its straightforward spelling and pronunciation appeal to parents seeking something distinctive but approachable, and its relative rarity ensures that most classrooms will contain at most one Bryton at a time.
