Scarlett Ann

Hellocatshome · 10/11/2021 14:54

No one uses middle names really so the choice is between Tallulah and Scarlett. Personally I prefer Scarlett.

Luredbyapomegranate · 10/11/2021 20:35

Tallulah is quite a strong flavour but I quite like it.

Scarlett would have been a while ago, but now v common, so I'd probably avoid it.

Amberflames · 10/11/2021 20:38

Not really a fan of Scarlett to be honest. Tallulah isn’t really my style but I prefer it to Scarlett. Would you shorten it? Tally would be the obvious way but that’s a bit Tally ho. I think you’ve got to be pretty posh to pull that off.

Onlinedilema · 10/11/2021 20:39

Scarlett. I cannot imagine being called Tallulah.

LizzieSiddal · 10/11/2021 20:40

Scarlett Ann is lovely.

TatianaBis · 10/11/2021 20:43

I don’t like either and they’re now rather dated, but Scarlett Ann works much better.

Edenember · 10/11/2021 20:46

Scarlett

MonsteraDeliciosa · 11/11/2021 00:02

A vote for Tallulah here. I think Scarlett has had its day.

StillMedusa · 11/11/2021 00:08

Tallulah makes me think of Bugsy Malone (and therefore it's a bit sleazy)
I quite like Scarlett.

SammyScrounge · 11/11/2021 01:13

Scarlett.
Tallulah is used sometimes in irritation to tick off a child, as in:
' Right, Tallulah,lights out. Time you were asleep'

Chunkymenrock · 11/11/2021 01:21

Scarlet is a nicer name. It sounds much better with Ann too.

KirstenBlest · 11/11/2021 08:34

I'd use Ann as the first name

Tallulah is nice but is too frilly
Scarlett is ok

Fifthtimelucky · 11/11/2021 08:39

I don't much like either but I think the danger with Tallulah that the two names will run together and sound like Tallula Ran. Similarly of course, Scarlett Ann will sound like Scarla Tan, which is a bit too close to charlatan for my liking!

Scarlett

Shasha17 · 11/11/2021 13:36

Love both! I'd choose Tallulah as less popular

Riverlee · 11/11/2021 13:37

I’d choose Tallulah (nn Tally)

Classica · 11/11/2021 13:40

I'd rather be called Scarlett. I don't dislike Tallulah but I feel like people would have expectations of some extrovert, razzle dazzle, glamourpuss. And I'm only an extrovert, razzle dazzle, glamourpuss on special occasions.

Classica · 11/11/2021 13:41

Tallulah has better nickname potential though.

GoingBackTo505 · 11/11/2021 13:45

Tallulah by a long shot. Scarlett is quite boring (to me) and Tallulah has so many more nicknames and feels much more fun to me.

FreeBritnee · 11/11/2021 13:59

With my red skin Scarlett would have been my worst nightmare, so I’m going to have to say Tallulah.

SnowdropFox · 11/11/2021 14:00

Scarlett, I just can't take Tallulah seriously.

BeKindBeYou · 13/11/2021 07:02

Scarlett Ann

Awrite · 13/11/2021 07:06

Definitely Scarlett Ann.

rainbowstardrops · 13/11/2021 07:27

Tallulah. I love the nn Tilly. Not keen on Scarlet
