The word 'Bridget' is used to name a female child and has been thought to be taken from the Irish mythology. In Irish the original word was Brighid that conveys the idea of the one who is exalted. In Irish mythology the name is attributed to the goddess of poetry, fire and also of wisdom. She was the daughter of god Dagda.

There are two other important bearers of this name and one was the patron saint of Ireland who was known to the world for establishing a convent way back in the fifth century. The name is also being given to a Saint of Sweden who was known to the world with the name of Birgitta, too. She is famous because she was responsible for founding the order of nuns the fourteenth century.
