Re: Scarlett
in reply to a message by Lily8
I like Scarlett. It used to remind me of Scarlet O'Hara but it has become so relatively popular it doesn't any more.
I have mentioned this before but of my SILs said she liked Scarlett enough to use it when her first daughter was born - but her husband's last name is an item of clothing eg Coates or Boote.
I think I prefer Scarlett but I dither about it.
I like Scarlett Eve and Scarlett Katherine.
And as far as I remember she was just Katie Scarlett - she was named after her Irish grandmother who I guess would have been Kathleen?

It was never stated in the book that Scarlett's grandmother's full name was Kathleen. It's stated that it was just Katie. Maybe some people used nicknames as full names back then, just as they do now.
