I do not like it. I think the connection to Gone With the Wind is very strong, and I really dislike GWTW. I feel the same about Scarlett.
There is both a Rhett and a Scarlett in my daughter's pre-school class...and we live in New England! So Gone with the Wind is what I think of too, but I don't mind it
I'm a Gone With the Wind fanatic, so I love it (I genuinely think it's a nice name and I don't just like it for the GWTW connection). I live in the south and it's not popular or trendy here, but I did go to school with a Rhett.
I like the history behind the name and the fact that it's a strong name for a boy.

Re: Rhett
I like the name Rhett. it seems southern and manly LOL. I have also read suggestion of fn Everett with nn Rhett.
I'm no good with choosing random mn. I like family names in mn spot
gl, hope baby cooperates!

I really do like it! But, I do have to agree with the strong GWTW reference, and again, I agree with PP's that I like it as a NN.
GL picking a name!
I really like it!
Rhett Charles
Rhett Alexander
Rhett Arthur
I like it-- I think you need a 3 syllable MN to balance.
Rhett Jameson
Rhett Anderson
Rhett Jonathan
Hope your LO cooperates!

**RATE A NAME HERE!**
I'm a Gone With the Wind fanatic, so I love it (I genuinely think it's a nice name and I don't just like it for the GWTW connection). I live in the south and it's not popular or trendy here, but I did go to school with a Rhett.
I like the history behind the name and the fact that it's a strong name for a boy.
It is on my list if we have another boy. I will be pairing it with a family name so I'm thinking Rhett Harris or Rhett Dempsey.
