The word levee, from the French word levée (from the feminine past participle of the French verb lever, "to raise"), is used in American English (notably in the Midwest and Deep South); it came into English use in New Orleans circa 1720.
The only other words that could be used in this context are "dike" and "levee", which comes from the French language meaning 'raised up'.
