Well, we're now thinking of Rose for our overdue PFB...what do people think? It was one of my favourites that DH wasn't sure on, so we had it as a middle name. For some reason this morning he had a complete about turn on it out of the blue.

The bit I am stuck on now is a middle name. I think that something with a heavy vowel sound or ending in a vowel sounds 'easier' than a heavy consonant sound, if you see what I mean.

I had thought of:

Rose Isla or Rose Amy...but haven't got much further.

Any suggestions gratefully appreciated!

I think a longer middle name might be good?

Rose Elizabeth
Rose Miranda

came to mind for some reason.

I agree that a longer middle name would sound nice so maybe:

Rose Charlotte
Rose Amelia
Rose Katherine
Rose Louisa
Rose Madeline
Rose Eleanor
Rose Olivia
Rose Penelope

Hope that helps!

Yes, I agree that a longer middle name sounds better actually, it balances well. Thanks for the suggestions so far!

Rose Elizabeth is lovely, very classic sounding and the names compliment each other perfectly.

I have a Rose Elizabeth and really do love it.. I have only ever had positive comments about it.. Timeless and classic I think.. but of course, I would say that!!
