Which one would you choose?

I really like Alice and Rose but can't seem to choose which one I like more. I'm not keen on Alice Rose together as Rose seems a popular with hyphenated names and everyone will assume her name is Alice-Rose. Which one would you choose for a first name Alice or Rose?

Rose by a slight margin I think. Love Alice too though.

I'm no help because I really love them both. I'd have liked to use one or both of them, but couldn't use either because they don't work with our surname. Fortunately, I had boys so it didn't matter Smile

If you pushed me to choose, I'd say Alice.

Rose! definitely underused as a first name and just beautiful.

Alice

Rose but both are lovely

Rose. It's so popular as a middle name but underused as a first name.

Alice
It's classic and lovely

There are a lot of Roses out there especially as a middle name.

I'd park them both and see which one fits better when baby arrives. If it helps, I imagine an Alice as fair and a Rose as dark but that's just me.

They are both lovely simple names.
