[Opinions] Re: Would it be weird…
in reply to a message by KK
It's quite a stretch even if the names do rhyme. It might not be so weird if Charlotte herself insisted on being called Scarlett, though that does sound like the kind of thing a teenager would do to rebel or to experiment. But for a parent to consciously choose to call a daughter Scarlett when they are the ones who picked out Charlotte, just because "she seems more like a Scarlett" seems unlikely and silly.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
