Scarletta is a feminine name that’s a twist on the French and English last name Scarlett. From the Old French word escarlate, it can connect baby to the bright shade of scarlet red. This shade of red can symbolize all sorts of traits, including joy, passion, and courage, giving your little one plenty of inspiration throughout their life. For a historical touch, Scarletta or Scarlett was also used to refer to someone who sold bright, rich fabrics—particularly those colored scarlet red. If you want to inspire baby’s creative spirit and compare them to a cloth that’s rich with potential, Scarletta can make for a great choice.
