Origin & history of Brooklyn1
Dutch roots
Brooklyn derives from the Dutch Breukelen meaning broken land or marshland, the name of the Dutch settlement that became one of New York City's five boroughs. It entered first-name use in the 1990s and was famously given to David and Victoria Beckham's son Brooklyn in 1999. For girls it entered the US top 50 in 2011. Its New York energy, urban cool and the nickname Brook give it distinctive American character.
