History & Origin
Lizett is a streamlined spelling of Lisette or Lizette, a French diminutive of Elisabeth, from Hebrew Elisheva, 'God is my oath.' The name spread in later-twentieth-century America, notably among Latina families who favored its bright sound, and Lizett is one of its simplified spellings. The meaning comes down from Elisabeth.
The spelling crested around 1999 and stayed uncommon, borne by roughly a thousand girls before fading in the 2010s. A Lizett named at the peak is now in her mid-twenties. The fuller Lisette and Lizette remain in use; this spelling reads as a modern streamlined variant.
