Lisette

Like or not? I thought it sounded so pretty. Pronounced lee- zet.

Pretty. Is it French? Maybe trying a little too hard but I like it.

I like it. I knew a Lisette, she's quite beautiful.

Love it when pronounced Liz-ette. (“Liz” like the nickname for Elizabeth.) everyone I’ve known with this name pronounced it that way but maybe not if you are French or European?

I know two--one hispanic, one caucasian. Both pronounced "lih-SET". I think it's pretty! I'm not a fan of it with a "z" sound though.

Pretty - and I like both pronunciations the PPs shared.

[Anonymous]

Love it! One of my favorite French names!

[Anonymous]

Very pretty and fresh.

[Anonymous]

not crazy about it. Sorry!

[Anonymous]

I don’t think people are going to pronounce it correctly with that spelling.

[Anonymous]

I’ve only know it pronounced with the S sound, not Z.

I like Libby better.

I grew up in San Diego and knew a lot of hispanic kids with this name. I think it's pretty, but to me it's definitely an "ethnic" name, sort of on par with Yolanda? I've always heard as is "lizETTE."

It's not my favorite but if you love it, go for it. It is nice to hear a hear a different "L" name. I had a friend a few years ago who was looking for a girl's name that started with L, and I feel like it was hard for them to find a name that sounded fresh -- Laura, Lilah, Lily/Lillian/Lillia. All very pretty but not particularly exciting. They wound up going with Layla which is I like a lot but I bet they didn't consider Lisette. I'm curious what they would have thought of it.

Latina here. Very different. Yolanda is a classic, Lisette is a French name associated with uneducated people trying to sound fancy(at least within my subgroup).

OP, I think it’s tacky, but I’m obviously biased.
