I think Rose sounds better with a longer middle name to balance it- of course it also depends on your surname. How about the following which are quite pretty names:

Rose Olivia
Rose Amelia
Rose Alicia
Rose Esme (sounds okay even though shorter)

Good luck!

Depends on your surname - can you give us a close equivalent?

I think 'm' names go well

Rose Marina
Rose Matilda

or maybe

Rose Delilah?

But, to be honest, I might be tempted not to give a middle name at all - I think it's lovely on its own.

Rose Marie

(Oh Rose Marie I love you
I'm always thinking of you
No matter what I do I can't forget you
Sometimes I wish that I had never met you
...la la la

Nelson Eddy I think, like Yellow Rose of Texas, bear with me...)

Ditto Wendy W- definitely Rose Marie if the surname is Sauce.

Hi

I love the name Rose and will be using it but as a middle name as I think it goes so well with any 1st name.

My faves are

Abby Rose
Amy Rose
Caitlyn Rose
Lydia Rose
Cally Rose

My DD1 is Rosie Louise. I think it's a beautiful name, Rose or Rosie, and you don't hear of many people with the name anymore. My DD2 is Mollie Elizabeth!! So I like that one too! Good luck!!!

I've changed the spelling of surname as a feeble effect to protect my identity. Whats the MN's verdict on Rose Roe?
