Which do you prefer?

Both of them are nice. Rose is so overdone as a middle name, but it's lovely as a first.

I think I prefer Cassie but not sold on Cassandra. Cassia is ok - I also know a Kasia, which is beautiful but maybe a bit odd with no Polish connection. Could Carissa work?

I prefer Rose /Rosie Cassandra seems a mouthful.

Also @ZebraKid71 I wonder if most people would only know Cassia as being the bark oil you add to Easter biscuits? It does sound pretty though...

I like Cassandra. And I like Rose. If I named a daughter either of those I wouldn't use an abbreviation.

I love them both! I'd say Cassandra if I had to choose but they're both lovely and quite uncommon nowadays.

I prefer cassie but I don't like cassandra. What about cassia?
