DH and I had all but settled on Felicity for DD1 (due in a week) but have had a last minute change if heart.
I have always loved the names Rose / Rosie and it's also a family name. Problem is that I automatically discounted it as our surname is Rh*es . I accept that Rose Rh*es doesn't work but we've looked again at other longer Rose names and both love Roseanna. Middle name will be Beatrice so am content that Roseanna Beatrice sounds pretty but can we get away with it with our surname? I was thinking that this name at least gives DD the option of Anna too which I also like.
Nn would be Rosie which I know when put with the surname is very similar but I have convinced myself it's distinctive sounding rather than ridiculous. I expect a few raised eyebrows which I can handle but just wanted to check whether this was just the right side of acceptable or not?
Don't need opinions on Roseanna versus Rosanna as much prefer the e version of the name.
Thanks v much!
(Ps anyone else find it impossible to sleep these days!!?)
