Funny, I had just changed that. Bretagne doesn't mean 'Little Britain' (afaik), but it was called that by the British settlers in the early middle ages. Or it might be that those British used a term meaning 'Little Britain' which the French then adopted and which then changed to 'Bretagne' over time. I wouldn't be surprised. After all we're talking 1500 years ago and words can change a lot over such a long time. Come to think of it it's quite surprising that the words 'Britain' and 'Bretagne' are still so much alike.
