The father of the name Sonett was Sixten Sason the disigner of the first Sonett open sportscar. Romour has it that when he looked at the first Sonett car he said "Så nätt!" in Swedish. The swedish letters a with a ring over and a with two dots over is hard to use outside the Nordic countries so the name was Sonett. Sonett means as Jim says "so neat" or "so cute" and Sason had tried to use the namne Sonett on a car back in 1946. At last he got the name on a car.
Sorry about my bad "Swenglish"
