Yvette is a French feminine diminutive of Yvonne, derived from the Germanic name Ivo, which is rooted in the element "iv" meaning "yew tree" or possibly from "ew" meaning "bow." The name became popular in French-speaking regions during the medieval period and gained broader European and North American use throughout the 20th century, particularly among Christian populations.
