Rosalie or Rosanna?

Which do you prefer? Smile Cannot decide between the pair!

Also, did consider Rosa at one point but didn't feel like a complete name, if that makes any sense.

Now I've got 2 earworms going!

Rosemary
Rosalind?

I would go for Rosa on its own.

MrsMolehillMountain · 22/08/2018 16:59

Rosanna is very elegant and stylish. I can imagine a girl/woman of any age pulling off this name beautifully.
Rosalie to me seems a bit 'faddish'. It's popular now on Mumsnet but I think it seems more 'temporary' if you see what I mean?

Rosanna but both are lovely
I also like Rosalind/Rosalinde

TatianaLarina · 20/08/2018 16:40

Not at all, the Rosalie I know is fraightfully umc.

I agree that Rosa is a full name in itself. I think it would just get turned into Rosie though and there are loads of those.

Hushabyelullaby · 20/08/2018 16:39

Rosalie is my favourite, but Rosanna is ok too.

SimplyTwinkly · 20/08/2018 16:36

Very traveller/Gypsy names

LarkDescending · 19/08/2018 22:18

Rosanna edges it for me - but I love Rosalie too (and Rosa, for that matter!).

Lovely choices.

delilahswishes · 18/08/2018 22:47

I love Rosa, Rosanna is nice but the few I have met have become "Roz", Rosalie is very pretty but sounds a bit like it could be Rosa-Leigh in my head!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 18/08/2018 22:35

Rosalie

ladycarlotta · 18/08/2018 22:33

Rosalie is beautiful. But Rosanna's fine too.

Jeippinghmip · 18/08/2018 19:47

Both lovely and I like Rosa and Roz.

kikidoyouloveme · 18/08/2018 19:46

Rosalie

MikeUniformMike · 18/08/2018 18:58

Rosa is a complete name. I think it is lovely.
I like Rosanna but Rosalie's not my cup of tea.
Love Rosalind.

YoloThankfully · 18/08/2018 18:15

Rosalie

daisypond · 18/08/2018 17:51

Rosanna for me. It's got more of a grown-up edge about it, which is better for an adult, I think.

pouraglasshalffull · 18/08/2018 17:17

Rosanna is beautiful

Sessy19 · 18/08/2018 16:26

Rosalie is beautiful

Treaclepie19 · 18/08/2018 16:22

Rosalie, so pretty :)

halcyondays · 18/08/2018 16:09

Rosalie

DC2018 · 18/08/2018 16:04

I Love Rosalie.x

MargaretDribble · 18/08/2018 08:01

Rosanna

GinNeeded · 18/08/2018 08:00

I have a Rosalie, who is occasionally shortened Rose, never has anyone called her Roz!

I had a similar short list, but I cant imagine using the others now.

Both are great names.

MyLifeInTheSunshine · 18/08/2018 07:59

Both lovely, but I think Rosanna is more dignified.

mintich · 18/08/2018 07:55

Rosanna
