Answer 5

i know of two people with Dewitt as a last name. I dont think it would make a very good first name.

Answer 6

Yes, Dewitt is a variant of the Dutch surname De Witte, meaning "the white one." Behind the Surname (very accurate, by the way) explains that De Witte was originally a nickname for someone with white hair, then evolved into a common surname. And of course, with the current trend toward surnames as given names, it's not unusual in the least to find it occasionally used.

Hope that helps! ;)
