Which one, and why? Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

By sound alone, I'd say Charlize, which really is beautiful. However, I'm not even sure how popular it is in South Africa - and outside of South Africa, it's synonymous with Charlize Theron. Not a bad association, just an unshakeable one.Scarlett has actually managed to shake the immediate O'Hara association, so I'd have to choose Scarlett in this case.

Scarlett, hands down. I love it. I never been a fan of Charlize. It just never interested me.

Scarlett. Charlize is a one person name to me.

I guess Charlize, though neither is that great. Scarlett is just too showy, almost like a pet's name, but Charlize is a name that's only a name because of one famous bearer.

Honestly, I can't see the appeal of either of them. Scarlett is silly and Charlize looks genetically modified. But at least it features two actual names, so Charlize it is. I heartily dislike Charlotte, don't mind Charlize as much, and have a friend named Charlene which makes me almost fond of it. But I've never heard her called Charlene, except at school by the teachers! Then, she was Charles; now she's become Charlie.

Scarlett. Simply because I don't care for Charlize. It sounds heavy, is likely to be constantly corrected and is too tied to a certain actress. Scarlett on the other hand sounds lighter, prettier and has more 'right-off-the-bat' associations.

Neither is quite my style, but I'd choose Scarlett. Charlize is a name I think people have heard (Charlize Theron), but I think she'd still be correcting people with "no, not Charlie" constantly.
