One of her epithets was "Brigid of the Holy Fire".Todd (1998), p. 23 In German and Scandinavian countries, the popularity of the name spread due to Saint Bridget of Sweden. In the Irish language, the name is spelled ''Brighid'' or ''Bríd'' and is pronounced "breed" or "breej". In the Scottish Gaelic language, the name is spelled ''Brìghde'' and is pronounced "breej-eh" At one time the name was so popular for Irish girls that Bridey was used as a slang term for an Irish girl in ...
