First name Rose - looking for a long middle name?

60 replies

Sunflower160 · 29/09/2019 17:43

We have decided to name our DD Rose. I know it’s a popular middle name but seems less common as a first name and I love how simple and classic it is. We have a one syllable surname so looking for a longer middle name with 3 or 4 syllables, such as Rose Elizabeth (surname), I don’t like Elizabeth even though it flows quite nicely, just using that as an example. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Our DS is Reuben William. Thank you!

I think you need a middle name that begins with a vowel. Of all the suggestions on this thread, I like Rose Antigone best.

I know you said you don’t like it, but Rose Elizabeth flows beautifully.

Another vote for Elizabeth - it never goes out of fashion

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 29/09/2019 21:47

It’s quite hard because what ever you go for Rose will always sound better as a middle name.

That's so odd because I was actually going to say Elizabeth 😂. My DD has that as her middle name - it's a family name.

Rose is a lovely first name.
