Anette is a Scandinavian and French variant of Anne, which derives from the Hebrew name Hannah, meaning grace or favor. The name spread across Europe through the veneration of Saint Anne, the traditional mother of the Virgin Mary in Christian tradition. Anette is particularly common in Nordic countries and Germany as an alternative form of Annette, itself a French diminutive of Anne. Related forms include Annette, Aneta, Annetta, and the source name Hannah.
