Mariette Origin and Meaning
The name Mariette is a girl's name meaning "drop of the sea, bitter, or beloved".
A less-popular alternative to Juliette, perhaps – although it feels rather more dated.
The meaning of Marie is uncertain, but theories include "drop of the sea" (from Hebrew roots mar "drop" and yam "sea"); "bitter" (from Hebrew marah "bitterness"); and "beloved" (from the Egyptian root mr).
