Meaning and history
Linnette is a modern spelling variant of Lynette or Linette. Linet appears in medieval Arthurian romance as the name of a woman who accompanies Gareth, but the name’s deeper etymology is uncertain. Modern forms may also be influenced by Lynn, an English name associated with Welsh llyn, “lake,” or by names ending in -ette. These sources should not be combined into one certain meaning. Reliable prominent bearers using exactly Linnette are limited.
