Britanney is English in Origin.

Britanney is a modern elaboration of Brittany, the English place-name transferred to given-name. Brittany comes from French Bretagne, ultimately Latin Britannia, “land of the Britons.” As such, Britanney carries the sense “from Brittany” or “a Briton,” with faint Celtic/Brittonic associations. The -anney spelling likely blends Brittany with the familiar Anne/Annie ending, lending a softer, personalized look.

Its parent name surged across the English-speaking world in the 1980s–1990s amid fashionable geographic names and pop-culture visibility; U.S. usage was boosted by figures like Britney Spears and actress Brittany Murphy. Britanney itself is very rare, appearing sporadically in late-20th-century records as a creative respelling. Related forms include Brittany, Britney, Brittney, Britany, Brittny, Brittani, Brittanie, Britaney, and Brittaney; short forms Brit and Britt are common, with Annie possible for this spelling. While Bretagne is not used as a given name in France, Brittany and its variants remain recognizable in many Anglophone communities.
