Pretty.

MopsRUs · 05/01/2020 09:23

Unusual, pretty.

I love Lysette, it’s a pretty but solid, sturdy name to me. (Pronounced Liz-ette)

lowlandLucky · 05/01/2020 08:36

I worked with a Lizette years ago

Krazynights34 · 04/01/2020 18:53

Love it!

Dearymeop · 04/01/2020 18:50

Sounds like a contraceptive

Melstarrynight · 04/01/2020 16:14

I thought of lisette Anthony. I like it 😀

Ohyesiam · 04/01/2020 16:12

Very pretty

Pineaurouge · 04/01/2020 16:11

In France it’s pronounced lee zet

TatianaLarina · 04/01/2020 10:51

Li as in lip - zet. Emphasis on second syllable.

Ellmau · 04/01/2020 10:33

It makes me think of a maid in a French play. It is quite pretty, though.

mousemousse · 04/01/2020 06:07

Also made me think of tampons

peanutfoldover · 04/01/2020 06:03

Is it prounounced Lye-set or Lee-set?

Astronica · 04/01/2020 04:55

Very nice.

sue51 · 03/01/2020 23:03

Very pretty name.

Throughabushbackwards · 03/01/2020 23:02

I also immediately thought of tampons.

Laylight · 03/01/2020 22:58

Makes me think of someone in the Victorian era dying of consumption

Inanothertime · 03/01/2020 22:50

Lysette Anthony

dreichnolonger · 03/01/2020 22:49

I also know a Dutch lady with this name.

coiner · 03/01/2020 22:46

As an aside, I'm a fan of -ette names in general. DD1 almost had one until we discovered it was also a liqueur 😂 We gave her the un-ette-ed version.

coiner · 03/01/2020 22:44

Yes. Very pretty.

Elmo230885 · 03/01/2020 22:43

To be honest made me think of tampons
Sorry!

Anerak · 03/01/2020 22:40

Lots of Dutch woman called Lisette. I think it could be lovely for a little girl

Pineaurouge · 03/01/2020 22:39

Very popular in France right now. I like it!

milkjetmum · 03/01/2020 22:37

Worked recently with a Liset from Netherlands and she pronounced it lee-jet which was lovely
