Personality

 * Piper: "How did you become such an optimist?"
 * Wyatt: "From you, mom."
 * — Piper and Wyatt talking

Wyatt has a very optimistic view on the world, a trait that he learned from his mother (something that Paige still laughs about). Like his aunt Phoebe, Wyatt has a problem holding back the truth such as when he accidentally revealed Coop's future marriage to Phoebe when he went back in time.

However despite his optimistic attitude, Wyatt can be outright intimidating and aggressive when someone is threatening the people he cares about and will be merciless in battle.

Etymology

 * Wyatt: From an English surname which was derived from the medieval given name Wyot, itself derived from an Old English name composed of the elements wig "war" and heard "brave, hardy". Wyatt Earp was an American lawman and gunfighter involved in the famous shootout at the OK Corral.
 * Matthew: The Hebrew name "מַתִּתְיָהוּ‬" (Matityahu) was transliterated into Greek to "Ματταθίας" (Mattathias). It was subsequently shortened to Greek "Ματθαῖος" (Matthaios); this was Latinised as Matthaeus, which became Matthew in English. The popularity of the name is due to Matthew the Apostle who in Christian theology is one of the twelve apostles of Jesus and the author of the Gospel of Matthew. The name is also sometimes used as an anglicisation of the Irish name Mathúin, meaning bear
 * Halliwell: Derived from any of the several places named with the Old English pre 7th Century elements "halig" meaning "holy", plus "well(a)", a well or spring.
