Nicolet, because I'm Dutch and Nichole et al is overused.

How do you actually pronounce it? I always hear it as French in my head, I was alittle surprised to see that its actually a Dutch name.

Sorry, I should have said because I'm Dutch-American, because I don't know prn. very well. As a guess, I'd pronounce it nee-ko-leht, no idea which syllable to emphasize. ETA: I would assume the t is pronounced as in English, because the Dutch names I have encountered with t's prn. them (Gerrit, Griet, etc).

Nicolet......even with the association to nicorette or whatever the product is. I HATE the h in Nichole, it makes it look like "nich-ole"
