A sonnet is a 14 line poem, best known because of Shakespeare's affinity for writing poetry in that form.

That's what I think when I hear 'sonnet'. Not a name. A type of poem. I personally don't think it sounds good as a name either - it's sort of funny (like, weird) but not in a way where it could still be a name imo.

edit: I haven't learned any Shakespeare since high school and was having major problems typing his name :P lol

Hmm...that's interesting, I think I rather like it, it reminds me of Shakespeare and of the name Lyric. Because it reminds me of Shakespeare I'd say it's more masculine and it ends in a T which is a bit harder, though several girls names do end in -ette which sounds like the -et here. I guess it's more of the Son- part that makes it more masculine to me.

Female because sonnets make me think of poetry and romance, which are more feminine things than masculine things.

This is a beautiful name for a girl. :-)

I think of Sonnet as female, and I think it's very pretty : )

Neither. But if I had to pick - a pet, and then a girl. :b

Charity - hate it. :(
