Help[Opinions] Re: Evert
in reply to a message by JNord
First I think of Chris Evert, the tennis player.
Then I think, it's a word like convert, revert, avert, and invert. (but said ee-VERT, so that's not that important)
Then I think, it's like a contraction of the fashionable name Everett, influenced by the goofy "name" Ever.
I like the name Everett and I think Evert is not as good. It sounds a little dorky. I'd like Evret more.
But it's usable. My impression is mostly that it's a surname-name, that relates a bit to trends. So, it's OK. I think if my husband were really attached to it as a first name, and I didn't hate it, I might be willing to use it. I can picture calling a kid or a man by it, and it's not uncomfortable. I think it might often be mistaken for Everett, but w/e.
