Lizet is in Origin.

Lizet is a modern spelling variant of Lisette, the French pet form of Elisabeth. Like all forms of Elizabeth/Isabel, it ultimately goes back to the Hebrew name Elisheva, traditionally interpreted as “my God is an oath” or “pledged to God.” The z in Lizet reflects Spanish influence and parallels other Hispanic diminutives built from Elizabeth and Isabel, making the name feel both familiar and streamlined.

In use since the late 20th century, Lizet appears across Latin America and within U.S. Hispanic communities, while closely related forms surface in France (Lisette), the Netherlands and Scandinavia (Liset), and English-speaking countries (Lizette). Common variants include Lizette, Lisette, Lizeth, Liset, Lisset, and Lissette; from the wider family come Liza, Elise, Elisa, and Eliza. Nicknames such as Liz or Lizi keep it casual, and the name’s classic roots lend it a timeless meaning despite its contemporary spelling.
