(q.v.), of Teutonic origin, from iv ("yew"),
rendered "bow," or "archer," because the weapon was made from yew wood.

and Ivette.
Usage: America, Australia, Belgium, England, France, Great Britain, New
Zealand.
That was Yvette. The blithe
Ambassadeurs
Glitters, this Sunday of the Fête des Fleurs;
Here are the flowers, too, living flowers that blow
A night or two before the odours go;
And all the flowers of all the city ways
Are laughing, with Yvette, this day of days.
Laugh, with Yevette? But I must first forget
Before I laugh, that I have heard Yvette.
For the flowers fade before her; see, the light
Dies out of that poor cheek, and leaves it white;
She sings of life, and mirth, and all that moves
Man's fancy in the carnival of loves;
And a chill shiver takes me as she sings
The pity of unpitied human things. 1894.
(Colour studies in Paris, Symons, 1918)
