Hypothetical Old English 'Byrhfunta'='spring of or at the fortification'. The spring is that at 'Offwell Farm' whose name also contains a reference to it. 'Funta' is taken to testify to signs of Roman activity (see HAVANT). The modern pronunciation is shown by forms like 'Burrant(e)' to date from at least the 16th century.
