Alouetta Origin and Meaning

The name Alouetta is a girl's name.

Alouetta is a feminine name derived from the French word 'alouette,' meaning 'lark' (a type of songbird). It's closely associated with the famous French-Canadian folk song 'Alouette, gentille alouette.' The name evokes images of music, freedom, and the natural world. Alouetta has never been widely used in English-speaking countries, maintaining its distinctive French character. The addition of the final 'a' softens and feminizes the traditional word. This melodic name carries connotations of joy and lightness, characteristics often attributed to the lark in literature and folklore. Parents drawn to Alouetta might appreciate its musical quality, French origins, or the symbolism of birds. The name has a romantic, whimsical quality that sets it apart from more common choices.
