Ettie

Ettie is originally a girl's name, and the meaning of Ettie is 'star.' In some languages, Ettie also means 'little.' A notable bearer of this name in the fifth century was the queen of Persia. It is thought that the name came from her. Ettie is a name with multiple origins, but it gained widespread usage in English-speaking nations, particularly in the United States in the 1800s.
Additionally, Ettie has ties to the Persian and Hebrew linguistic traditions. The name has its origins in both Hebrew and Persian, with the Hebrew form being a variant of the name Esther and the Persian form being an alternative to Esther. In addition to other meanings, the name also means 'myrtle leaf.' Ettie or Etty can be used as a nickname for any given name, such as Henrietta, Juliette, or Colette, because 'et' features prominently in the name's pronunciation, typically at the end. The -ette ending is a diminutive suffix that is used in French.
