The Lovett Baronetcy, of Liscombe House in the County of Buckingham, was a title in the Baronetage of Great Britain. It was created on 23 October 1781 for Jonathan Lovett of Liscombe in the parish of Soulbury, Buckinghamshire. He was subsequently offered a peerage but declined, on the grounds that his only son had died. Lovett married Sarah Darby (daughter of Jonathan Darby of Leap Castle), but died in 1812 without surviving male issue, his son Robert Turville Jonathan Lovett having pre-deceseased him in 1807, and thus the title became extinct.

A new patent of the baronetcy was gazetted in 1808, with remainder to the first Baronet's daughters and their male issue. However, it is unclear whether this creation passed the Great Seal.
