Scarlette

Scarlette is a girl's baby name of Old French origin, a variant spelling of Scarlett, from an occupational surname for someone who sold or dyed scarlet cloth, ultimately meaning 'red.'

The added E at the end gives this spelling a more elaborate, romantic look — nodding toward the French origins of the word. Scarlett itself, immortalized by Scarlett O'Hara in Gone with the Wind, has been one of America's fastest-rising names over the past two decades. Scarlette appeals to parents who want all that drama and beauty with a slightly more distinctive presentation.
