HelpRe: Random BA's [short]
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
I think it's rather telling that only one first name was hyperlinked.
Even that name I'm not crazy about, because I think Scarlett O'Hara really owns that name. If I had a friend named Scarlet, I could only last so long before ending a conversation by saying, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" and storming from the room. Then I would feel bad, knowing that she'd heard it twenty million times. But it would only be so long before I would have to say "I can't even pay the taxes on Tara!", "As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again!" or at least make some reference to a social gathering.
Which may be just my own weirdness. But, still, it says to me that Scarlet's not the best/most usable name. Helen Scarlett would have been perfect, in my opinion. On the other hand, it's legit, and thousands of heads above Link and Stone. And Prather. (????)
