We have a daughter named Grace. We really like just Rose. Thoughts?

Yes, lovely! I met a little Rose recently and thought it was lovely and underused as a first name ATM.

Lovely. I know 5 girls from 1 - 15 named Rose.

I love it. It's kind of boring as a middle name but stunning as a first name. No idea why but it just is!

I love it - but am biased as I have a Rose. She knows lots of others who have it as a second name but not many as a first name. She is 15 and, in her school of 850 girls aged 11-18, there is only one other with 1st name Rose.

I'm pregnant with my second and I am canvassing for the name Rose (if it's a girl of course).

It is my one regret with all 3 of our dc names.
Our dd should have been Rose but we chose something else.
We were given woo signs too.

I think it's lovely. My stepfather's mother was a Rose. Her sisters were Alice, Edith Grace and Evie. She was born in 1909, Edith eldest, Evie youngest! What goes round comes round.

My grannie was Alice Marina, her sister Evelyn Helena. Their mother Eleanor, sisters Isabel, Elizabeth and Florence.

nd I should have said "Nellie", "Bella", "Liz" and "Flo". Not quite so nice Shock

Is perfect. I have one :). She did spend most of primary school refusing to respond to Rosie though. As she's said " but it's not my name " people did learn eventually !
