Expecting a girls and we like the name Rosalie (Nn Rosa).

For middle name, what are your thoughts on:

Rosalie Megan
Rosalie Florence ?

I think it needs to be one or two syllables max for the middle name.
We can’t have Grace or May as already have family members with these names.

I also think Rosalie Anne sounds nice, and that a one syllable middle name would go better.

Anne?

Mumsnet is obsessed with the name Rosa

I reckon 2 syllables (or more) is OK.
(Mind you, I'm biased... It's quite common in my family to have multi syllable first and second names!)

Motherofcats007 · 18/06/2022 23:30

I think it goes better with a shorter middle name
Kate
Paige
Claire
Jo
Thea
Helen
Faye
Wren
Beth

I think 2 syllables sounds too much with a 3 syllable first name so I would stick with a 1 syllable middle name.

Rosalie Rae
Rosalie Fleur
Rosale Skye
Rosalie Elle
Rosalie Dawn

Obviously you may not like the same middle names as I do but just some suggestions 😊

Where she was conceived... 😯

Poppins2016 · 18/06/2022 23:15

Rosalie Florence was my first thought before I been opened the thread!

I wouldn't overthink middle names too much, to be honest, beyond thinking about what the initials spell out (if anything) and any sentimental meaning. You don't use a middle name very often in life...

Beautiful name!

What about a nod to where you two met? Or where she was conceivied?

Or your favourite song? Rosalie Lola?

How lovely.
