SAM1981...the meaning given on that website is incorrect. If you notice it said "Unknown", so they really don't know about it. There is one website that actually did a study on surnames and that one IS correct...but I'll leave that up to you guys and see if you can guess, and find the website :-D

So a clue...I'm not of Irish, Scottish, Russian, Native American, Canadian (French included in that), Serbian, Hungarian, nor of Macedonian origin.

Keep guessing :-)

Thanks for all the responses so far!

White/American are not nationalities. They are generalizations and one is just a country.

White/American are not nationalities. They are generalizations and one is just a country. I would choose German. Btw, you kinda look like claire danes. Anyway, the name Gavitt sounds almost like if you said it in different ways it could be French or Italian. Eastern European -- maybe Serbian or Hungarian European...but the name sounds Irish origin. just plain american or irish maytbe but i really dont know I think you are Macedonian,but the surname sounds Scottish. You are American! You may have family from Russia, Poland, England, I would also hazard a guess you have some Native American blood too.

Gavitt is English of unknown orgin, possibly an alterred spelling of Gabbett. your from nova scotia or newfoundland, so that makes you canadian I would say by looks alone Irish or even Scottish Gavitt
English: of uncertain origin. Perhaps an altered spelling of Gabbett, which is from a pet form of the personal name Gabriel. You look like an Anglo to me. You sound like an Anglo to me. What nationality are eskimos? Inuit! i'm going Nordic with this one.... Finland maybe? Slovakian or Yugoslavian. Norwegian or Icelandic i will go with Norwegian hold on! gavitt sounds dutch....... south african? Bulgarian?!!? i reckon u r croatian!!!!!!!
xxxx Chile! i do not know but i know you have a very interesting look to you a lil cutie! like a svetlana type anywho ur cute You are Danish of Icelandic ancestry. Are you my lost adopted sister? German? Serbian? Finnish?
btw your eyes are gorgeous. you look like a standard white person... were you child of standard white people?.. and let me guess... the origin of your surname is from... ahh... the phonebook?.. You look so much like one of my friends in high school, you could be sisters. She's part Polish, part Finnish. So I'm guessing either of those. German?... German idk bout the surname... i could look it up but i dont feel like Ukrainian you look nordic, maybe from iceland i'll say you are Greek...
