Letta is a feminine name and a shortened form of Letitia, Violetta, and any title that includes sounds like lett or letta. Simple and sweet, this moniker is most often linked to the Latin name Laetitia, meaning "joy" and "happiness." These two definitions might just represent your little one's best traits, from their constant appetite for fun to their ability to put smiles on others' faces. Your Letta may also find significance in their name's alternative translations, including Violetta's "violet," Nicoletta's "people of victory," and Paulette's "small" or "humble." There'll be nothing understated or modest about your tiny tot's accomplishments, however, as you'll teach them to dream big and be proud of all the talents they've developed.
