Scarlet

A color of passion, wealth, power, and luxury, Scarlet is a fitting feminine name for baby. More commonly spelled as Scarlett, Scarlet stemmed from Old French and Middle English and was originally an occupational name given to merchants of a “fine cloth.” It’s also commonly derived from the Old Persian word saqerlât, meaning “scarlet.” In the Bible, scarlet is a red color used to describe shameful women. Despite this, Gone With The Wind author Margaret Mitchell popularized Scarlet with her lively and intelligent central character, Katie Scarlett O’Hara. Scarlet evokes a world of color and emotion and will be the perfect name for a passionate soul like baby’s.
