Which do you like best please? Or any other options?

Want to honour a late family member who went by Ro. A nickname, not her real name, which we don’t want to use.

Middle name Bethan.

TIA

Rosa or Rosanna are my favourites.

PixieN · 02/12/2019 22:50

Rosita or Rosie.

I also know a little Roselle which I think is lovely.

lovelyjubilly · 02/12/2019 22:44

Love Rosalie, closely followed by Rosa

Astronica · 02/12/2019 22:30

I like Rose best of your options. Rose Bethan is gorgeous.

We have a Rose and she gets called Ro Ro by her friends.

RoRosmama · 02/12/2019 22:20

My daughter is Rosaria. We call her Rosa for short or sometimes Rosebud.

Rosalie Bethan.

I like rosalie! Then you can nickname ro, rose or rosie as she goes through life :)

I know a rosie who's full name is rosanna which you might like?

Thetimetravelerswife · 02/12/2019 22:03

I like rose and Rosa.

Leopardprintboots · 02/12/2019 18:10

I vote Rose, it’s just so so classic and gorgeous. Can have Rosie or Ro as her nickname if she likes

I like Roxanne/Roxanna

Personally would avoid the name Rowan due to confusion with v popular name (fastest rising in top 100) Roman @Strangeinthenight

Monoceros · 02/12/2019 18:01

Rosamund

RedRosie · 02/12/2019 17:57

Rosie. Obviously. Grin

Blowandgo · 02/12/2019 17:45

Rosina?
Rosaria?

TFSRM · 02/12/2019 17:41

Romilly

doodlejump1980 · 02/12/2019 17:40

Rona? Rosanna? Roan?

titchy · 02/12/2019 17:39

Rose won't be shortened to Ro though which you want I think? If so Rowan, Rowena.

MikeUniformMike · 02/12/2019 17:37

Rowena
Rowan
Rowella
Rosalind
Rosanna
Robina

soupforbrains · 02/12/2019 15:06

I like Roisin (pronounced Row-sheen), And I like Rosamund too.

Of those mentioned here I like Rose and Rosalind.

I know a Rosabella too.

VenusClapTrap · 02/12/2019 15:02

I love Rosemary, and you never hear it these days.

BonBon411 · 02/12/2019 14:55

Thanks everyone.

I think I’m even more confused now!! So many lovely names to choose from.

I think most likely we will go for Rose which is DHs favourite. I honestly like them all evenly!
