The Story of Lizette
Lizette is a French diminutive of Élisabeth, itself derived from the Hebrew name Elisheba meaning "God is my oath" or "my God is abundance."

Lizette has enjoyed steady popularity in Latin American communities, particularly in Mexico and the Caribbean, as a more unique alternative to the more common Elizabeth or Lisa.
