Comments for the name Monet

Comments for MONET:

Actually I have never run across an example of a male Monet. All of the babies I have seen given this name in the United States have been girls. The name has been taken up as a girls' name by some parents because it sounds like a blend of the names Monique and Renee.

Not said like it is spelt "mon-ET" urgh! It is said Mon-ay.

Yes, it is pronounced mo-NAY. Don't "urgh" it, it's a part of it being French.

I love the work of the artist Monet and I think his last name makes for a pretty girl's name. Perhaps it is because it sounds like a blend of Monique and Renee, as a previous poster suggested. I think I'd only use Monet as a middle name, however.

There is an American actress that bears this name, Monet Mazur. Her full birth name is Monet Happy Mazur. Her father, Ruby Mazur, designed the Rolling Stone's famous "mouth" logo.

Monet "M" St. Croix, a Marvel comics superhero, a member of Generation X and, later, X-Factor Investigations.

This is a beautiful name that honors an excellent artist. Its softness seems better suited for a girl, though. Monet would make a nice middle name - much better than a typical "filler" like Marie or Anne.
