I really like it!

LOVE it.  If this one had been a boy, we would have named him Everett, 'Rhett'.  Awesome!

sandraanddrew

I like it but it's not my style at all.

~Kat~

I love it! Nothing really comes to mind except an acquaintance who has a son by that name.

Gone With the Wind

It was the name one of my cabbage patch kids came with.

My first thought is nms, but Everett nn Rhett is growing on me.

"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn," is what comes to mind for me. Along with many other scenes and lines of dialogue from the book/movie, and the image of Clark Gable.

I love it!

Like but not a name I'd personally use. Have only met one Rhett in real life nice guy :

I like it as a nickname for Everett.

Everett nn Rhett

Oh, I like this idea!! I think I am adding it to my list haha.

I really like it! Especially as a nn for Everett or Garrett.

Gone with the Wind and by default a name I'd classify as "Southern". NMS.

Gone With the Wind is what I think of. It is ok but not my personal style.

Love Rhett!

I like it.

Like PP just mentioned, I fall into the group of people that just don't get the name. Maybe it's NMS.

To me it sounds more like a sound than a name. I just asked DH what he thought of the name and he said "What"? several times before he realized what the name was.

Honestly, it reminds me of Rett Syndrome which a condition in girls that is similar to autism.  I'm a mental health professional, so take it that into consideration

Gone With the Wind-- I can't imagine hearing Rhett and thinking of anything else!

This.

I really don't like it. Like a PP stated it sounds more like a sound than a name.

Rhett Butler ("My dear, I don't give a damn") and Gone With the Wind are the first things that come to mind, then my nephew. I'm actually starting to hear this name a lot lately. I really, really (not quite love) it.

aimee1899

I like it.

bumpuser5823822

It makes me think of a meat head lol And I don't mean to use that to knock the name, because I think its a fine name. I just think of a guy with muscles ha

ShawMich

We would have named my 3rd son that if it wasn't so matchy with the other names. I am a fan!

victoria+james

Like, but don't love...

RenDavidson13

Love it! It makes a great nickname for Garrett and Everett. 

MrsTBird

I love this name! If it didn't look so matchy with DS' name and sound weird with our ln, it would be very high on our list! I'm still considering looking past those issues and just using it!

I've never heard of it before until it was mentioned on here. I like it, but it's NMS.

DaisyBlinks:

People don't "get" it as much as I expected. Half of the time people are just like 'lie Rhett Buttler?" and then we're good. The other half of the time, people are like "Brett? Rex? No? How do you spell it? R-E-T? Did you make that up?" I really didn't expect it to be so difficult, but some people have trouble.

Ha! This has been happening the same way with Atticus. Seriously people? They may not be common names, but they're both pretty iconic IMO.

I love Rhett, and was pumped when Daisy decided to use it. I've known one IRL; he's my age.

Same here. Too many difficult/sad associations with this one.

I like that name!
