Brittany by the numbers
In 2025, 5 babies in England and Wales were named Brittany. In the US, 400 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
For the size of the two countries, it is given far more often in the US than in England and Wales.
Its American peak was 37,788 babies in 1989, so it is a 1980s name that has since fallen a long way.
At its height, in 1990, about 1 in 56 American girls born that year was called Brittany.
