Roz-a-Lynn

My first thought was rose-ah-leen. Rosaleen used to be a common name in Ireland and in the 19th c was the female embodiment of the country itself. Dark Rosaleen.

But having read the thread I suspect Rosaline is roz-ah-line.

Susanna30 · 16/04/2019 22:12

Roz-a-Line
(like from Romeo and Juliet)
Lovely name.

Ross-ah-leen

Littlebelina · 16/04/2019 21:15

Roz-a-line. For the top one I'd expect the spelling to be Rosalyn

DorothyBastard · 16/04/2019 21:14

Roz-a-lyn

Bellaposey · 16/04/2019 21:13

Very unhelpfully both! First glance Ros-a-leen then remembered Roz-a-line from Romeo and Juliet. Presume it can be either way.
