Romilly.

Roma for short

Rosa. I am not keen on Romy

Miserablemoan · 17/07/2020 22:19

Roma?

Enderline · 17/07/2020 22:16

I think Rosa is a bit more classic and less likely to date. Romy is nice, but overall I definitely prefer Rosa.

I love them both! Rosa is 'prettier' Romy is more 'cool/quirky' So depends what kind of vibe you're going for. But great choices!
This ^^ I also like Remi

Honestly when I hear the name Romy all I can think of is the improv comedy special Middleditch and Schwartz (Highly recommend by the way) where they had to come up with a name on the spot and ended up with brothers named Toby and Roby. If not for this, I’m sure I would like the name but if I ever meet a child named Romy, all I will see is poor, poor Roby.

Romy in a heartbeat 💚

Rosa

IdblowJonSnow · 17/07/2020 00:09

I like both a lot.
Romy is nicer when said with a French accent though.

Romy. I have 2 cousins one Romy and one Roma. They are both really lovely. X

IckleBear · 16/07/2020 16:27

Rosa, very pretty.. Romy is sweet too but Rosa just seems nicer for a girl.

Rosa

For me it would be a coin toss, both gorgeous. Quite different vibes. Rosa has some great women from history associated with it.

MikeUniformMike · 16/07/2020 16:03

Rosa. Not keen on Romy.

Roselilly36 · 16/07/2020 14:56

I have always loved the name Rosa, only known one Rosa.

Rosa

pinkpinecone · 16/07/2020 14:51

I like both but prefer Romy

DramaAlpaca · 16/07/2020 14:46

Rosa.

I do like Romy, but only as a diminutive of Rosemary.
