Reply to: Re: A Theory on the Name Rhett by Gregory Aalto
The first place anyone ever saw the name Rhett was in Gone With The Wind, published in either 1936 or 1937. It was the first name of a character called Rhett Butler who was created by Maragret Mitchell . While David 's theory on it being a variation of Rhys is possible the surname theory doesn't float.
