Give your little one a small piece of luck to carry with them through life by calling them Crayton. Typically given to boys, Crayton is a variant of Creighton, and both are derived from an English, Scottish, and Irish surname. The Pictish people of ancient Scotland were fond of giving this name to prosperous people, lacing it with good fortune for baby. Crayton was also a habitual name for families who lived in a "hilltop town" or "rocky place." It comprises the Gaelic críoch, meaning "border_," and the Middle English _tune, meaning _"settlement."_
