Jamesette Origin and Meaning

The name Jamesette is a girl's name.

Jamesette is a rare feminine name derived from the masculine name James, with the French diminutive suffix '-ette' added to create a feminine form. This naming pattern follows the tradition of creating female versions of male names, similar to Paulette from Paul or Georgette from George. Jamesette likely emerged in the mid-20th century when creating feminine versions of traditional male names became more common. The name is extremely uncommon, with very few recorded instances in official records. It offers a way to honor a James in the family while adapting the name for a daughter. Despite its rarity, Jamesette has a distinctive, identifiable sound that combines the familiar classic James with a feminine French-inspired ending.
