England
Britain is because Rome called the people that lived there Britons
Predating Brittany
Then the Normans did not replace anybody in England other than rulers. The angles already did that, thus "angle land." The Normans pushed out the bretons in Brittany, or northern France.
You’re right, it was the Angles
And the one thing to keep in mind with those tribes is many of them were actually mixed with lineages from the celts themselves because the britons were actively migrating down to armorica and the Iberian peninsula https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armorica
