Myett is English, French in Origin.
Myett is a rare modern given name in English, likely arising as a streamlined variant of Myette/Miette under the influence of the French diminutive ending -ette/-ett, or as a phonetic twist on the English surname Myatt. It fits the contemporary preference for crisp, two-syllable -ett names and appears sporadically in North American records from the late twentieth century onward, used for both girls and boys but skewing feminine.
Meaning depends on the route you favor. As a cousin of Miette - a pet form of Marguerite - it can carry the sense “pearl.” If treated as a blend with Mya/Maya, associations range from Sanskrit Māyā “creative power” to the Greek Maia, a springtime goddess. Read as a surname-first crossover from Myatt (ultimately linked to medieval pet forms of Matthew), it inherits Matthew’s “gift of God.” Related forms include Myette, Miette, Myatt, and Myott; nicknames may be My or Ettie.
