Amoret is in Origin.
Amoret is an English literary coinage traceable to Edmund Spenser’s The Faerie Queene (1590), where Lady Amoret personifies chaste, steadfast love. The name draws on Old French amour and the Latin amor, “love,” and aligns with the diminutive pattern seen in French amourette and Italian amoretta, yielding the evocative meaning “little love” or “beloved.” Though never common, it surfaced sporadically in 17th-century England and saw periodic revival in the 19th and 20th centuries among readers of Spenser and admirers of romantic, archaic names.
Variant forms include Amorette and Amoretta; related names include Amor and Amory (etymologically distinct but similar in sound). Usage today remains rare in the UK and US, lending the name a distinctive, bookish charm while keeping its etymology and literary pedigree transparent.
