love it would have been DS's name had he been a girl.

I know two scarletts. I think Maybe says it's chavvy because of scarlett johannson - but on that basis names like sienna and keira and any other celeb would also be deemed chavvy. to be honest I think scarlett o'hara is going to outlive scarlett johannsen in people's memories! It is a feisty name though. Also take it that your family is not ginger

i don't think i even understand what constitutes chavvy anymore but for a name it really is like the ultimate putdown isn't it....

Excuse me tis not chavvy at all. I'll have you know that Scarlett was my maiden name (had for many years and double barrelled my name when I got married) but then dropped it when my DD was born to use it to name her.

Awful imho to use the word chavvy.

I like it

nappyaddict · 12/08/2009 13:47

It's nice but quite popular nowadays.

Tillyscoutsmum · 12/08/2009 13:45

Its dsd's name. I've only come across one other so far (she's nearly 6) and I don't think its remotely chavvy. It doesn't get shortened by anyone at the moment

LouMacca · 12/08/2009 13:44

Lovely. I think its classy if anything and not chavvy at all.

Monkeyandbooba · 12/08/2009 13:40

Err charming Maybe it's my daughter's name and we are not chavvy.

LaurieFairyCake · 12/08/2009 13:39

A girl at school's who's name is this has Lettie for a nn. Much better than Scar.

pointydog · 12/08/2009 13:36

MaybeAfterBreakfast · 12/08/2009 13:34

Awful, imho. Very, very chavvy.

boodleboot · 12/08/2009 13:30
