Charles Frédéric Petit (1857–1947) was a French competitor in the sport of archery. Petit competed at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris in two events and won a third prize in each. He is now considered by the International Olympic Committee to have won two bronze medals. Both of Petit's events were the shorter 33 metre competitions, in both the Au Chapelet and Au Cordon Doré style.
The surname Petit is also common among Catalan Jews, and this name was used as a translation of Hebrew Katan in the middle ages. Some variants of this name are Petito, Petita, Petiton, Petite, and Patit. This surname is also established in Ireland.Scripts: פטיט (Hebrew)
