The Scarlet Letter

[mooie-ziel.livejournal.com]

Am I the only one who thinks of that when I heard the name Scarlett (thus the reason I wouldn't use it)?

I understand people just like the sound or like Gone With The Wind, or even Scarlett Johansson herself. I just can't shake off The Scarlet Letter for whatever reason.

I agree. If you're gonna honor GWTW (and by all means, everyone should b/c it's fucking brilliant), go with one of the lesser characters...like Cade Calvert or one of the Fontaine boys (or girls) or the Tarleton kids. All of them have great names, or hell even go with Katherine or Katie in honor of Scarlett.

I love the Scarlett character, in fact I think she's one of the most brilliant female characters ever written, but for the love of Pete don't put that name on a kid.
