Emmett ?

[ALittleBitOfMagic]

To American ? In west of Scotland here think it would be pronounced properly ?

Love it, it's Irish.

Doc Brown's name in Back To The Future isn't it?

Therefore its cool

love it! my 5th baby was going to be called this but she is a girl. if i ever have another and its a boy they will be an Emmett and yes its emmett brown from back to the future so totally cool!

Unfortunately makes me think of twilight twicrap

So it is three oh will need to tell DD that she loves BTTF ! Think that might sway DH too boys names are so hard I've not had that "thats THE name" moment I had in my first pregnancy

Not if you're planning on visiting certain popular tourist regions, where the words "emmet" and "grockle" (not that anyone would call a child "Grockle", surely?) and not-complimentary words for said tourists.

But if your dc can avoid Cornwall (which would be a shame) it'll be OK.

Sorry, are not-complimentary words.

Never read or seen twilight but I am aware it is a character name but didn't really put me off . We had Jacob on our shortlist and the twilight connection really put DH off it just because he's such a main character DH thought it would become really popular .

The Wild Geese is popping into my head.

I like it. Never knew there was one in Twilight [shows age]

Tbh it's really our accent that's putting me off Im not sure it will be pronounced properly 't's at the end of words are usually dropped here

keeping up appearances

Sorry I live too near Cornwall to take Emmett seriously as a name en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmet_(Cornish)

Makes me think of Legally Blonde. I already have an Ellen who used to shorten herself to Elle!

It's legally blonde I think of too pictures !

Omg you guys

I love it, it's quite popular in Ireland.

Due to this man

I'm in west of Scotland and I know an emmett. It sounds like it's spelled, so I dunno what the issue would be, but then I fair enjoy a glottal stop.

Oh yes love Emmett

I'm a Cornish girl so it would be a no from me, sorry.

I never knew it meant that in cornwall. I knew what Grockle meant though. why two words? do they mean exactly the same thing?

Squoosh, they should have had Sybil become involved with a Robert Emmet type, would have been much more realistickkkkkk

Emerson with Emmet as a NN?

Emmet is Cornish for ant, grockle is used by Devonians not the Cornish IME.
