It is old fashioned but classic none the less.

Reminds me of Rosalind Franklin, so yes from me Grin

Love it.

Yes, know a perfectly lovely early 20s Rosalind. Plenty of shortenings if you want, but very classic if later they need or want to use their full name.

Like I say, love it.

I love it!

It's my name and I've always hated it Blush It's far too classic and old-fashioned for my liking.

Ok but personally find the lind a bit harsh.
I like Rosa and I like Rosalie.

One of my all time favourite names! It sounds pretty and feminine but strong at the same time. It's timeless and classic, suits all ages.

Think I'd prefer Rosaleen/Rosanna. Just maybe softer.
