Letty Origin and Meaning

While Letty has yet to catch up with alternative spelling Lettie, it has been fairly consistently used in the US since 2016. Given to around 150 girls in a recent year, parents may have taken inspiration from the character Letty Ortiz from the Fast and Furious franchise, played by Michelle Rodriguez.
