Guite (Burmese: ဂွေးတဲ) is the name of a major family-group among the so-called Zomi, known as Paite and also as Mizo in India and as Chins in Myanmar (Burma). Depending on local pronunciation, the clan was also called differently such as Nguite, Vuite, and was also recorded even as Gwete, Gwite, Nwite.
