Etymology
Borrowed from en de Bregenz, from en la Brigantium or la Brigantia, from en cel-pro *Brigantī (from cel-pro *brigantī), from en ine-pro *bʰérǵʰonts high, from the root ine-pro *bʰerǵʰ- high + ine-pro *-onts Caland adjective suffix.
The Latin terms may be derived from the Proto-Celtic terms via en cel-gau brigā hill; fortress, though this is uncertain.
