History & Origin

Lizette is a French diminutive of Elizabeth via Lise — Hebrew Elisheva, 'my God is an oath, devoted to God'. The -ette form charmed mid-century America and remains warm in Latino families; sister to Lisette and Lissette.

It registers thinly today. Rare, devoted at the root, and petite-elegant.

Did you know? The -ette of Lizette is French for 'little' — the same dainty suffix in Colette and Juliette — making this name literally 'little Lise', Elizabeth's smallest self.
