If Bridget sounds a little to stiff for your free-spirited darling, meet your new favorite respelling, Bridy. This girl's name has Irish roots and means "power," "strength," "virtue," and "the exalted one." This classic choice is always in style, in part, because of Saint Brigid of Kildare. As the patroness of poetry, healing, and protection, this saint remains a symbol of miracles and a compassionate mother's touch. Some other adorable forms include Brydie, Bridie, Brigit, and Brita.
