Where this word comes from
From Medieval Latin Damietta, from the medieval pronunciation /dɑmˈjɑdi/ of Coptic ⲧⲁⲙⲓⲁϯ (Tamiati) with influence from Latin -etta (“-ette: forming diminutives”), the former sometimes hypothesized to be from Egyptian dmjt (“town, harbor”), from Egyptian d-mi-i-N21:Z1 (dmj, “mooring, port; town”) + t (-t, feminine ending).
