[Opinions] Re: Emmett
in reply to a message by Effie
My 2nd oldest son is Emmett, so I'm quite partial to the name.
When my DH and I started discussing names, I was thinking about names like Garrett or Bennett, but DH liked Emmett and it was a family name, so kido number two was Emmett. I'm really glad we went with Emmett, it's a very solid name and it doesn't sound trendy at all. I know of two other boys named Emmett, so I think it's one of those names that is getting more popular in certain areas, but still not uber popular that it's trendy. It's very much a guy's name, and the associated with Emmitt Smith the football player helps.
