Elbridge is a surname and boy’s given name of English origin, meaning “plank bridge” or “old bridge.” Famously borne by founding father Elbridge Gerry, this appealingly old-school name is sure to give baby a distinguished air. It was most popular in the late 1800s, but disappeared from the US baby name charts after 1969. Why not bring it back as a vintage choice for your little one? You may opt to shorten it to El for a more casual nickname.
