[Opinions] Re: Everett
in reply to a message by Llewella
1. Benjamin, Margaret, and Everett. I like it. You?
--Everett seems a bit out of place in a sibling set with Margaret and Benjamin, which both seem classic and old fashion. Everett is a relatively common last name where I live, so it just doesn't seem much like a first name to me.
2. Do you think Margaret and Everett sound too matchy? Our Margaret is always called Meg or Meggie, at least at this point in her life.
--I don't think matchy is the word I'd use but the RET(T) ending makes it feel awkward.
3. What impression do you get from Everett and what would you think if you met a little one?
--It's an ok name. Just not my style.
4. I see that it's had a big spike in popularity lately (in the US), which doesn't really surprise me. It doesn't really bother me, either, but do you feel like it will continue to get more popular for awhile or hang out in the 100s where it currently is?
--It's hard to say. I'm not a fan of it so I don't really care where it ranks.
