A female name. the modern use of this name is undoubtedly taken from Shakespeare, who took it from the Italian Giulietta a diminutive of Giulia (see Julia) But the medieval English Julian (q.v.) apparently had a similar diminutive, which appears as Juet, Juetta. There was also an occasional Julitta from St Julitta, mother of St Cyr.
— The Oxford Dictionary of Christian Names (1947) by E. G. Withycombe
JULIETTE. The f. of Julius (q. v.) as Juliana is of Julian; etymologically, Juliet is a doublet of jilt, since the latter contracts Gillet. Its use in England has been much reinforced by the charm exercised by Shakespeare’s heroine.
— Name This Child (1959) by Eric Partridge
A diminutive formed from Julia.
