Brittainey is English in Origin.
Brittainey is a modern elaboration of Brittany, a place-derived given name from the French region Bretagne. The toponym entered English via Old French Bretaigne from Latin Britannia, "land of the Britons," giving the sense "from Brittany" or "Breton woman." Predominantly feminine in modern usage, it reflects late-20th-century American taste for place-names and French-inflected styles.
Brittany rose sharply in the United States from the late 1970s, staying in the top 10 through the late 1980s and early 1990s; creative respellings proliferated. Variants include Brittany, Brittney, Britney, Britany, Brittani, Brittanee, Britnee, Brittaney, and Brittainy. Brittainey is among the rarest forms, used mainly in North America during that boom. Cultural visibility from figures like Britney Spears prolonged the family's prominence, though this spelling never charted highly and remains uncommon in the UK.
We have no record of Brittainey in any national birth registry or name dataset. That's typically a sign of a rare name, a regional or traditional one, or a modern coinage. Either way, it remains a genuinely rare choice.
