Starlet Origin and Meaning

The name Starlet is a girl's name.

Starlet is a feminine English word name that evokes images of both celestial beauty and Hollywood glamour. Derived from 'star' with the diminutive suffix '-let,' it literally means 'little star,' suggesting someone who shines brightly despite being young or small. While the term historically referred to rising young actresses, as a given name Starlet has occasional usage, particularly in the United States since the mid-20th century. This name carries connotations of talent, beauty, and potential for greatness. Unlike the more common celestial name 'Star,' Starlet adds a touch of delicate femininity and charm. It appeals to parents drawn to theatrical or astronomical themes who seek something more distinctive than popular star-themed names like Stella or Estelle.
