The name Laighton has a distinctively elegant sound, with its combination of vowels and consonants creating a smooth rhythm. While not widely used today, it possesses a certain charm and individuality that sets it apart.
"Laighton is quite rare, with only five babies named so each year from 2010 onwards."
