Barrett Thomas

cera.rn

My husband brought this one up last night, and I immediately said no because Barrett is some sort of gun.  It is kind of growing on me the more I think about it.

What do you ladies think?

nms but not bad.  nn Rhett?

I'd be more on board with Bennett Thomas, but it's not bad.  Different, but not weird.

Like Barrett, love it when you use Rhett as the nn.

I like it. Are you thinking Beretta for the gun???

Our mayor is Tom Barrett.

There is a company Barrett who makes sniper rifles or something along those lines.

That's Beretta actually.

Barrett Thomas is a solid name. I don't care for the meaning of Barrett, but I like the sound and strength of the combination.

Good catch - thanks! I only fire side arms, not sniper rifles.

Barrett is my husband's favorite boy's name too. He is a gun enthusiast, so I'm betting that is where he came up with it. I think it is a strong name, but I'm on the fence about it.

I love the names Barrett and Garrett (Garrick too). however, I doubt I will ever name my children any of those because of nicknames. 

Barrett & Garrett rhyme with carrot and could also easily be Barry or Gary.

Garrick could be Gary or Rick.

silly I know but I just don't like those nn's.

I knew a Barrett once, its different.

I really like it a lot. It's a really solid and strong name and I think there's a lot of choices for NN's later on.

Ugh-I hate the possibility of Barry as a nn.  If we go with this one, I will push the nn Rhett.

I like the name Everett Thomas better.

I like Barrett, but I don't think Thomas flows well as a mn.  Too many Ts.  There are 3 Ts in a row!

I really like it. I had a Barrett as a student and he was a solid, sweet, little guy. He didn't have a nn so I don't think it's necessary.

I love the name Barrett.  It's a family name for me, and it's my oldest son's middle name.  I had no idea there was any kind of gun association with it.
