Scarlett...well there is the actress....and the emmerdale character and ...a lady that i know of in rl! who is about 30 now....

pretty sure i haven't heard of anyother Scarletts round these parts.

Very pretty name...but i would imagine a girl with dark hair with that name....but thats just me

2point4kids · 24/10/2008 18:39

I know a 2 year old.
Def suits a dark haired little girl

bellabelly · 24/10/2008 18:42

I used to want Scarlett if I had a daughter but changed my mind when was with a group of mums and, of the 3 dds there were, TWO of them were called Scarlett! Just don't think it's that unusual any more, sorry.

ForeverOptimistic · 24/10/2008 18:42

I know one, she is about 3.

Aero · 24/10/2008 18:42

I will know one if my friend sticks to her guns when she has her baby.

Statistics (here) show a swift rise in popularity...

39th most popular name in 2007
46th in 2006
70th in 2004
Didn't appear in top 500 in 2003

It's likely the trend will continue.

It's not a good combo with Atlanta anyway, IMO.

kiLLf · 24/10/2008 18:50

i know one

don't like it though. scarlett needs a certain character to carry it well (feisty and unconventional imo) . If your daughter is not lie that, the name might be a bit of a burden

fullmoonfiendbloodcurdlinghowl · 24/10/2008 18:50

I know 3 in one chool alone.

pamelat · 24/10/2008 18:59

I loved it. Def dark hair girl though

I considered it but wondered whether it was for naughty children!!

slayerette · 24/10/2008 19:03

Tink - you are really stressing about this!

popsycal · 24/10/2008 19:03

Cremolatorium · 24/10/2008 19:04

is it because of 4 weddings that it became popular?

I know two both of whom are approx 8-10yrs

Aitch · 24/10/2008 19:06
