Aw, I fell in love with this name some years ago and despite how common it has gotten in recent years it still casts charm and allure, it's just such a wonderful handsome name, very timeless and pleasant sounding.
Sounds like an 80 year old widower living in a rural Montana trailer community. More recently it’s a baby who’s father calls collect from a correctional center. I like classics but not this.

Nice and handsome name for boys and men. I like it.
One of my favorite male names so far. Not too common, simple, yet sophisticated. In a way it reminds me of Everest. No idea why. I like that association though. I also like names starting with "Ever", but this one isn't too "out there".
In 2018, 68 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Everett who is registered male with the Social Security Administration. It is the 835th most common male first name for living U.S. citizens.

Hello... my name is Everett and I named my boy Everett Jr. Good name lol.
My son's name is Everett Arthur. We fell in love with the name Everett when pregnant with my first child, who ended up being a girl. His middle name is a family name. We think it goes well together.
Former painter Thomas Kinkade's youngest daughter is named this, presumably after the painter Everett Shinn. IMO unless this is a family name, I think it is really terrible on girls. Thankfully it's still predominantly masculine. We've already lost Addison, Ashley, Taylor, Mackenzie, and countless others to the female gender; we don't need to lose Everett, as well.

I think Everett sounds more like a girl name, but that's just me.
I've a friend with this name. For him, the correct pronunciation was EV-rit (two syllables). However. I have seen this name pronounced EV-ə-rit, EV-rit, and even EV-ər-rit. [noted -ed]
When I was little, I thought this name was very trashy because this really trashy metalhead guy in my extended family was named Everett. But then, I volunteered at a feline clinic/shelter and while I was there I met the sweetest cat named Everett. That cat completely changed my impression of this name.

Fictional yes, but Ulysses McGill in the movie Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? played by George Clooney went by his middle name: Everett.
Everett goes with so many names that I like. I also knew a great guy with this name so I love it!

Everett was my great-grandfather's name; when I told one of my friends this, she thought it sounded backwoodsy (I don't). I like the sound of it, but I'm not too fond of the meaning.

I think this name is really cute with the nickname Ever.
I pronounce this name with two syllables, ev-ritt. I prefer it that way and it sounds better when saying it with my Mid-American accent. We are naming our first boy this and nicknaming him Rett. It is very gentlemenly, yet not pompous which I like.
