Everett and Donovan

What are your thoughts on [name_u]Everett[/name_u] and [name_m]Donovan[/name_m]?

What kind of boy/guy do you picture?

Could they suit a half chinese boy?

Two of my favorite names. Not great at name imagery, but I imagine both on an effortlessly cool ‘guy’. :slight_smile:

I am of the philosophy that any name can suit any ethnicity, so my opinion is it’s fine!

[name_u]Everett[/name_u] feels outdoorsy to me, and [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] feels more bookish. I like both names. [name_u]Everett[/name_u] might be a hunter, someone interested in falconry, not much of a talker. [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] is academic, with old leather bound books in his room, he might be a poet or musician.

Yes, they’d suit a half Chinese boy just fine. Good choices. :slight_smile:

[name_u]Everett[/name_u] feels preppy and smart to me, whereas [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] is more rough and athletic. The only Donovans I’ve met were huge football players. :stuck_out_tongue:

I think both would work just fine on a half Chinese boy.

Lol! [name_f]My[/name_f] opinions of the names are completely opposite of the one above. [name_m]Just[/name_m] to show you how varied opinions can be! The only [name_m]Donovon[/name_m] I know is a spoiled and preppy. [name_m]Everette[/name_m] seems more ‘manly’ to me!

Oh my goodness, I adore both [name_u]Everett[/name_u] and [name_m]Donovan[/name_m]! [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is my second favorite boys’ name, and I don’t have [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] on my list, but I keep trying to find room for him there–they both strike a similar image for me, precocious and inquisitive, very into nature, a mama’s boy, with a sensitive and kind heart. Smart, but not annoyingly so. Helpful. Good at heart.

And yes, I can easily see [name_u]Everett[/name_u] or [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] on a half-Chinese little boy! [name_f]My[/name_f] first thought is a little boy with wavy light brown hair of Irish (maybe?) descent, but I can totally see a half-[name_f]Asian[/name_f] boy pulling either off really well.

Good luck!

[name_u]Everett[/name_u] is great! I don’t like [name_m]Donovan[/name_m].

i think they work great together! Sound like a cute pair of boys of any ethnicity.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] both! [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is rally growing on me. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the nn [name_m]Rhett[/name_m]. And [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] is such a handsome name nn [name_u]Van[/name_u]. Could work with any nationality. Great choices

[name_u]Everett[/name_u] and [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] are two of the few surnames that I like for first names. They do give off different vibes. [name_u]Everett[/name_u] is a more serious and studious intellectual type while [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] is creative, outdoorsy and down-to-earth. I think either name can cross cultures quite effortlessly.
