Evette Origin and Meaning

The name Evette is a girl's name.

Evette is a feminine name of French origin, functioning as a diminutive form of Eve. Eve derives from the Hebrew name Chavah, meaning "life" or "living one." Evette emerged as a more delicate, affectionate version with the characteristic French diminutive suffix "-ette." The name gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s, though it never reached the top rankings. Evette offers a softer, more elaborate alternative to the biblical simplicity of Eve while maintaining its connection to the concept of life and vitality. The name has a certain vintage charm today, as it's less commonly given to newborns than in previous generations. Evette's French styling gives it an elegant, feminine quality while its biblical roots provide historical depth and meaning.
