    The name Gravett has a long French heritage that first began in southern region of Languedoc. The name is derived from when the family lived in Languedoc but the name could have also been derived from the Old French word "grave," which meant "gravel." MAKES THE ATTACKS ON THE FRENCH THAT MUCH FUNNIER
