Clydette is an uncommon, yet distinctive given name of American origin. Derived from Clyde, which means 'from the river', Clydette is a feminine variant that also draws its inspiration from water sources. It gained limited popularity in the early to mid-20th century but has since become quite rare, making it a unique choice for parents seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their daughter.
The name Clydette saw its peak popularity in the years following World War II, with a notable spike in births in 1947 and 1948. However, by the mid-1950s, its usage started to decline, reaching an even lower point by the early 1960s. Over this period, a total of 71 babies were named Clydette.
