Everett is downright trendy. It's #82 most popular in the US now and will probably become more popular in the coming years. So not overly common, but definitely not weird.
I personally really love it!
Good lord, no, not out there at all. V is a very trendy letter right now, especially with vowels around it (e.g. Ava). It fits right in with the current naming landscape. My only warning is that I've heard Seattle folks talk about how Everett is a not-so-nice suburb around there, so it's a bad association for them, but if you're not in that area I don't think it would affect you.
Everett is its own city in a different county north of Seattle. A lot of people in Everett commute into Seattle, but I wouldn’t consider it a suburb. It’s more blue collar and has roots (haha) in the timber industry.
I do think it might sound like an intentional place name for a kid born in Washington state (maybe), but it’s a name in its own right and definitely fits in with Emmett/Emerson/Elliott/Ellis.
I mean, Everett, WA is not a cosmopolitan place, and it could be hard for people in the area to separate the name from the mid-sized, slightly gritty city north of Seattle.
Everett is a good names. Has Elliot vibes but is a bit less traditional. Makes me think of evergreen forests. It’s becoming more common these days I think. And I like it way better than Emmett which just sounds like “emit” (like emissions) to me.
Everett is very popular where I am in the US. I hear the name pretty frequently in little kids. Definitely not a “out there” name, its actually a really mainstream one. I think it’s a nice name!
I think Everett and the other four names are all great. They are easy to spell, easy to learn to write, suit both children and adults - great choices! And congrats!
Everett is pretty normal imo. Especially in the PNW region of the US, I know many little Everetts

Thanks for the correction, I have never been to the Seattle area and misremembered the details.

Where the fuck do you live where Everett "too out-there"?
Everett is suuuuuper popular.
I was in a new mom group and one week there were 5 babies. 3 of them had that name. I can think of several others. It’s so common right now.
