Eliette origin and meaning

French-style elaboration (American use)

Uncertain — probably a French-style diminutive built on Eli/Elie (from Elijah, Hebrew 'my God is Yahweh'), though the exact construction is not documented

Eliette looks and sounds French: it is built like a diminutive of Élie, the French form of Elijah, with the -ette ending French names often use. In practice it is a very new American name — it entered US data only in 2016 — riding the popularity of Ellie, Elsie and other soft El- names. Its roots are best credited to the Eli/Elijah family rather than to any single documented source name.
