My grandmother's name was Floetta. I've been trying to find the origin of this name for some time. I've been told by a family member that it is an Indian name and I was thinking maybe French. I don't know. I can tell you that the family background is German. She was born in 1897. Her mother was 20 at the time and unmarried. Some of my thoughts were the name came out of a novel from that era.

If you could help that would be great. Family members nicknamed her Floy.

Thanks.
