Lattis is English in Origin.

Lattis is a rare given name tracing to the Latin Laetitia, “joy, gladness.” Through Old French and Middle English, Laetitia became Letitia in English, with medieval spellings such as Lettis and Lettice appearing in parish rolls. Lattis reflects that archaic Lettis form with a modernized double-t and -is ending, making it an uncommon yet linguistically grounded variant.

Usage spans the Middle Ages into the early modern period in England and Ireland, with a revival among Puritans and a modest Victorian presence. International cousins include Laetitia (French), Letitia (English), Letizia (Italian), Leticia/Letícia (Spanish/Portuguese), and Lettice (medieval/early modern English). Diminutives span Letty/Lettie, Lety, Tish, and Tisha. Bearing the enduring meaning of “joy” and “happiness,” Lattis offers historical depth with contemporary rarity and a crisp, two-syllable sound (LAT-iss).
