First Impressions

AI-Written
The name Jarrett tends to be pictured somewhere in its early thirties, accompanied by a high school track medal still sitting in a desk drawer. The double-t ending gives the sound an orderly finish that avoids the heavier gravitas of Gerald. It reads like the late 1990s preserved under museum glass: practical, mildly athletic, and unlikely to cause a scene. It carries the distinct energy of someone who prints the event parking pass in advance.
