  1. My husband and I wanted something unique, we thought about all sorts of names. One day he suggested Bridger and we both immediately knew that was the one. We got married in the Bridger-Teton National Forest, our honeymoon was at the Fort Bridger Rendezvous in Fort Bridger, WY and his guess date was Labor Day 2026 which is the weekend of the Fort Bridger Rendezvous (where we would be if it wasn’t for the possibility of giving birth). It was all so fitting, he was born on his guess date just making his name even more suitable for our first son.

  2. I named my son Bridger when he was born in 1987. I named it after the mountain man Jim Bridger. We live in Idaho and hunt and fish. Additionally, our town is known for it’s high school wrestling and my son wrestled for 13 years starting when he was just a little kid (he placed in the state finals). My wife and I wanted a strong and more masculine name. Sine naming my son Bridger several other friends have since name their son the same. Its an outdoor and expedition type name to me and its not very common so we love it (and so does he)

  3. Unique but not weird. Masculine

  4. I love the name Bridger. It is less common but people can relate to the word “like bridge with an R?” It is also a strong name I can imagine for a grown man and a young child. The only thing I don’t like is when my son says his name people sometimes think he said Richard or Virgil.

  5. Our son is named after the Bridger-Teton national forest in Wyoming, where we’ve done lots of climbing and hiking.

    The only problem is people always think we are saying Richard.

    Apparently a lot of dogs in Montana are named Bridger.
