Origin and meaning of Nicoletta
Nicoletta is the Italian diminutive of Nicola, from the Greek Nikólaos, 'victory of the people,' formed from nikē, 'victory,' and laos, 'people.' The name thus blends a sense of triumph and community with a note of affectionate grace. A typically Italian choice — elegant and slightly retro — it corresponds to the international Nicole and the rarer Nicolette. It is liked for its easy musicality and its strong, positive meaning.
