Meaning & History

Transferred use of the surname Ayrton, which was originally taken from the place name Airton.

Outside of its Brazilian usage, the name was popularised by Brazilian racing driver Ayrton Senna (1960-1994), starting after his first win at the 1985 Portuguese Grand Prix and increasing (or, in some cases, peaking) shortly after his death.
