'angelet' originates from Middle English, specifically the word 'angelet', which is a diminutive form of 'angel', where the suffix '-et' meant 'small' or 'little'.

'angelet' changed from the Middle English word 'angelet', which itself was formed from 'angel' plus the diminutive suffix '-et', and eventually became the modern English word 'angelet'.

Initially, it meant 'a small angel', and this meaning has remained the same in modern usage, though the word is now rare or archaic.
