Re: I really love this name, but people here seem to hate it
in reply to a message by KK
I hate it because I hate the Scar sound, and I automatically shorten most names to their first syllable.
Obviously, this is not an issue for a book character.
Even though I hate the name, I think it’s just fine for a child too. It’s getting plenty of use, it’s familiar, it ages just fine, and my dislike is purely personal preference.
ETA: I would of course pick Charlotte from the two, but I don’t think a Scarlett is going to be any worse off for being Scarlett instead of Charlotte.
