Currently petitioning DH for Rose for this baby (if it's a girl), so Rose! But both beautiful.

LaceyLee · 10/07/2016 20:09

Kate is probably more unusual these days so I'd go for that but love both.

Ilovenannyplum · 10/07/2016 20:15

Rose, it's so pretty

cosmicglittergirl · 10/07/2016 20:16

Rose

bloodymaria · 10/07/2016 20:19

Rose, Kate's probably gaining in popularity due to that royal chick.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 10/07/2016 20:21

Rose!

Ankleswingers · 10/07/2016 20:23

Love Kate personally.

Kate

Fancy being named after s flower if you're not a girly girl.

Heatherbell1978 · 10/07/2016 20:24

Ooh. Kate and Rose are on my list if we have a girl! We have a long surname so shirt names are best! Kate winning for me right now.

I always wanted a DD called Kate. I love it. But then I realised that most of my family drop the 't' when saying it. So had to abandon all names with t in. Love Charlotte too.

AugustRose · 10/07/2016 20:27

I much prefer Rose but mainly because there are so many adults and children called Kate or Katie where I live.

PartiallyStars · 10/07/2016 20:28

I love both. If I had had a DD she would have been Rose so I will go for that but I do love Kate also. I would have gone for Katharine with Kate for short but I have known Kates who are just Kate.

Kate

Liz09 · 10/07/2016 20:29

Kate.

Rose is much more popular nowadays. I love Kate. Bummed I can't use it myself as its already taken by someone in the family (same goes for Rose, but I like the vibe of Kate more).

RadicalPessimist · 10/07/2016 20:29

I love Kate.

SteviebunsBottrittrundle · 10/07/2016 20:33

I vote Rose, but I do like both Smile

Bottomchops · 10/07/2016 20:36

Too many Roses now!

NotYoda · 10/07/2016 20:38

Rose

DramaAlpaca · 10/07/2016 20:41

I love both so I'm no help.

If it was Kate I'd personally have Katherine on the BC, but I'm aware Kate's a standalone name too.

jelliebelly · 10/07/2016 20:43

Kate - my dd is Katherine but so many options to shorten x

FranKatzenjammer · 10/07/2016 20:44

Kate.

I teach a boy called Rose!

DeltaSunrise · 10/07/2016 20:44

Love Kate.

DowntonDiva · 10/07/2016 20:53

Rose
