I love it. I like it a lot better than Benjamin.

I like it, although I would spell it Bennet like Pride and Prejudice.

I'm not a fan. It may just be because of this weird boy named Bennett who I knew, but I'm not sure if I'd like the name that much anyways.

[moshimoshi-13.livejournal.com]

But I do like the nn Ben.

I prefer Benjamin, but it could be worse.

[yasue.livejournal.com]

I like it.

[notmybusiness.livejournal.com]

Very nice! I prefer that over Benjamin.

i like it very much. much more than benjamin.

I can't decide if I like Bennett.

Unless it's a family name, then I definitely like it, because Ben is a cute nickname.

Otherwise, really I prefer Benjamin.

Strangely enough, the only person I've ever heard named this was a woman, so it seems feminine to me for that reason only. But it's still a nice enough name :)

Like it because it reminds me of Jane Austen. Although, I think I like Benjamin a bit better. :)

I don't usually like last names as first names.. this is one that I mind the least of all (well, I'm ok with Harrison too). By that I mean... I kind of like it. Sometimes more than others. I've never met a real Bennett- only someone whose last name was Bennett and we all called him that. (Not sure if it's the same in USA, but here in Australia, heaps of people refer to guys as their surnames in highschool). So I think of him... but if I met someone with that as their actual name I would probably like it.

I really like Ben... and Benjamin.

Love the name, hate the nn Benny.

Love it. Almost as much as the very popular Benjamin

It's a nice enough name, but the Bennett I know is a lazy slob with no ambition, so it's not one I would use.

I love it! So much better than Benjamin! I don't really like the nicknames too much.

I like Bennett, called... Bennett.

I don't think it needs a nickname.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I don't like it at all. It sounds fussy and stuck-up.

Eh... i knew people in school whose last name was Bennett... never really thought of it as a first name tho.

[imyourrapunzel.livejournal.com]

The only Bennett's I've known are girls, so it's not a boy's name to me.

I was reading one of the novels that is an off-shoot of P&P last night and the thought came to mind "Bennet, that would be a great boys name..."

I like it, a lot.
