Etymologically, the entry records: From French, diminutive of noix (“nut”). The rose takes its name from the French gardener of Charleston, South Carolina, who produced it in 1817. Root origin matters for spelling because borrowed morphemes (Greek, Latin, Old French, Old English) carry their source-language orthographic conventions into modern English, which is why historical etymology is often the cleanest predictor of whether a cluster like "-ough", "-eau", or "-tion" will appear. For readers arriving here from a spelling check, the authoritative guidance is: the correct English form is noisette, spelled N-O-I-S-E-T-T-E, and any other sequence of those letters, regardless of how natural it feels, is a misspelling in standard orthography.
