Lourdetta Origin and Meaning
The name Lourdetta is a girl's name of Spanish origin.
Lourdetta is a feminine name that appears to be a diminutive or variation of Lourdes, a Marian name associated with the famous French pilgrimage site where the Virgin Mary reportedly appeared in 1858. The suffix '-etta' adds a diminutive, affectionate quality in Romance languages. Lourdes itself derives from the name of the French town, possibly from Latin terms relating to steep slopes. Lourdetta carries religious associations while softening the more formal Lourdes. It's an uncommon name that might be found in Catholic communities, particularly those with Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese influences. The name combines religious devotion with a melodic, feminine quality.
