Peyton Name Meaning
One of the 2000s hottest picks, little Peyton has more than enough fashion to go around. She fits in a number of the top trends and is sure to keep parents coming back for more with her widespread appeal.
A unisex name that has almost entirely gone towards the girls’ side, Peyton fits in with her sisters Riley and Avery. Also a surname find, she works well beside Madison and Harper as well. Peyton has a leg up on the competition when it comes to popularity, however, as she doesn’t feel overused even when combined with her alternative spelling Payton.
Peyton takes her no-frills feel to heart, shunning the cutesy trend to remain a spirited pick with a wild side. She’s not one for tea parties and crumpets, preferring to let loose on the playground with her endless energy. Little Peyton is also free of nicknames to the delight of many parents.
While Peyton does have an independent nature, that doesn’t mean she lacks polish. With her surname vibes, she maintains a prim feel and isn’t one to fall victim to feeling immature. She’s adorable on a little girl and can age well, though her recent upswing in popularity will make timestamping her easier than most names.
