It is my DD's name so I obviously love it- the name actually has more history than people assume- as Zuchinni said, it has been used as a name since the 19th century and came from the word used to describe a highly desired type of fabric- the most highly prized of the 'Scarlets' was a deep red colour so eventually the word Scarlet was used as a colour word. Although I prefer the historical use of the Scarlet spelling, for some reason I prefer the look of Scarlett- it just looks more balanced to me- the 'tt's balance out the larger 's' if that makes sense. Either way, I adore the name and although its increase in popularity drives me slightly crazy, it's a true gem in my eyes.
