Littleton
Diminutive settlement name
Littleton is a common place name in the United States and England, typically denoting a small settlement or town.
Several American cities bear this name, most notably Littleton, Colorado, a suburb of Denver.
The name derives straightforwardly from "little town," reflecting the modest origins of such communities.
