Yseut Origin and Meaning

The name Yseut is a girl's name.

Yseut is a feminine name with roots in medieval literature, particularly the Arthurian legend of Tristan and Isolde (also written as Iseult, Isolt, or Yseut). The name derives from Celtic origins, possibly meaning 'fair' or 'beautiful.' Yseut represents the Irish princess who falls in love with Tristan in the tragic romance. Though rarely used in modern times, this name carries historical significance and literary depth. Its unique spelling gives it an air of mystique and medieval charm. While uncommon in English-speaking countries, variations of the name occasionally appear in regions with strong Celtic heritage or among parents seeking a distinctive literary name with historical resonance.
