Origin:French
Meaning:Yew
Evette is a girl’s name that evokes both the old and the new. Although some may relate this name to the Hebrew name Eve, it’s actually a variant of the French Yvette, meaning “yew.” Botanical fans may know a yew as a lush tree with its rich, red cherry-like seeds. While they may take a while to grow, they definitely have lots of stories to tell. They live twice as long as those old oak trees—that’s more than 400 years—before they’re considered ancient and can last until they’re 3,000. With such a strong, resilient, and fruitful connotation, a name like Evette can be a great pick for your wise little one.
