Lebreton Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
(French) The Breton [French le, the; Latin ille + breton, of Bretagne or Brittany, Latin Britannia (Minor); Latin Britanni, Britons; Greek Bρεττανία, Bρεττανίκή), Britain:—the stem is from the prim. form of Welsh brith = Irish brit, motley, pied, varicoloured, speckled; Welsh Brylhon = Cornish Brethon = Irish Breat(h)n-ach (cp. also Irish britach, stammering like a Briton), Briton, Welshman; cp. Welsh Brithwr (brith, varicoloured, etc. + (g)wr, man), Pict (the allusion, of course, is to the painting or tattooing practices of the ancient Celts). The argument against the connexion of brith with Brython is fallacious]
