Help[Opinions] Re: Scarlett
in reply to a message by Lily8
It's nice, but not the kind of name I'd use. It does make me think of Scarlett O' Hara, and a bit also of Johanson, but those aren't bad associations. Of your combos I like Noah Scarlett and Scarlett Catherine.
I've always wondered about the Katie Scarlett part, why she suddenly calls herself that (when she's reunited with her father, I believe).

She doesn't actually "suddenly" call herself that when she's reunited with her father. In the early part of the book, during a chapter that is detailing the family history, it says that when Gerald and Ellen O'Hara's first child is born, they named her Katie Scarlett after Gerald's mother. It further states that Gerald was disappointed, because he had wanted a son, but he was nonetheless pleased enough with his black-haired baby daughter to get rip-roaring drunk. See what an aficionado I am?

oh ok
I read the book ages ago (and might have glazed over some parts because 1000 pages is a lot, and wanted to get to the parts that are in the movie), so I just remember about her coming back to Tara and telling her father something like: "It's me, Katie Scarlett."
Thanks anyway *goes look for "Gone with the Wind" in the bookshelves*
