History & Origin

Lizzette is a later-twentieth-century American respelling of Lisette, the French diminutive of Elizabeth. That parent descends from the Hebrew Elisheva, 'my God is an oath'. The doubled-z spelling ties the name visibly to the friendly Lizzie/Liz forms while keeping the elegant -ette ending. Recorded from around 1917, it crested about 1999 at just over sixty girls a year.

Popular especially among Latina families, Lizzette stayed a modest choice and has thinned since the two-thousands. Its two brisk beats and clear stress make it easy to say; it reads as a warm, contemporary member of the vast Elizabeth family.

Did you know? Lizzette bundles two things at once — the fashionable French -ette ending and the friendly Lizzie sound of Elizabeth — in one spelling.
