Ivette is a French woman's name, it would be the female Ivo or Ives. It is believed to be Germanic and comes from the root 'iv' ( "glory" ), although it is also associated with Ivana (Ivana, Ivonne) who is a version of our John, of Hebrew origin. Considering that he is French we may find him a gala etymology : the Celts had a sacred tree called ivonix ( "tejo" ) and made weapons with their wood, then Ivette can be interpreted as "architect", the one carrying the weapon made of sacred wood.
