Antoinet

Antoinet is a feminine name that serves as a diminutive form of Antoinette, which itself is the French feminine version of Anthony. The name has French origins and means 'priceless one' or 'beyond praise.' While Antoinette gained recognition through Marie Antoinette, the last Queen of France before the French Revolution, the variant Antoinet is considerably rarer. It maintains the elegant French character of its parent name while offering a slightly more distinctive alternative. Antoinet has never been common in English-speaking countries but occasionally appears in French-speaking regions and communities with French heritage. The name carries a delicate, refined quality that reflects its aristocratic associations.

Pronounced an-twah-NAY.
