Love it. One of my best friends has that name and she is super lovely. I gave my dd Rose as a middle name in honour (and after her gran Rosalind).

MadameJosephine · 24/06/2017 19:19

I'm not sure how to pronounce it, is it Roz-a-lee (like I would pronounce Rosalind) or Rose-a-lee?

FoxesSitOnBoxes · 24/06/2017 19:19

Like it!

KingJoffreysRestingCuntface · 24/06/2017 19:19

NemosKnickers · 24/06/2017 20:10

I love it.

Great name! Rosa as a nn is also lovely...

Muumi3 · 24/06/2017 20:13

Very pretty. Love all the Rosamund/Rosalind/Rosemary and Rosalie variations. They're lovely

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 24/06/2017 22:14

❤️ Rosalie.

Buntysoven · 25/06/2017 00:44

Gorgeous

DramaAlpaca · 25/06/2017 00:52

Very pretty name, unusual too.

Mrsknackered · 25/06/2017 00:55

I disagree with unusual as my son has 2 in his nursery BUT they are beautiful little girls and I didn't used to be a fans of Rose- names but it's definitely changed my mind Smile

DramaAlpaca · 25/06/2017 00:56

Two in one nursery? Not so unusual then! I've never met one though.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 25/06/2017 01:02

It's pretty. I know a Rosella, but not Rosalie, so I think it's fairly unusual.

pigyoinkoinks · 25/06/2017 01:10

There was a Rosalie on the programme Grimm, love love love that name!

SuperBeagle · 25/06/2017 01:25

I don't like it. I prefer just Rose.

FidgetSpinner · 25/06/2017 01:27

Love it!

Unadon · 25/06/2017 02:13

It's a very pretty name.

IggyAce · 25/06/2017 16:14

I love it, it was on my list for dc2 but DH vetoed it and I had a boy anyway.

TobleroneBoo · 25/06/2017 16:15

I like it, I think there was a Rosalie in Twilight which boosted its popularity for a while

Thanks, seems like it gets the thumbs up. DH is not that keen as he associates it with mystic palm reading gypsy. Is he alone in this? I might try to convince him to go for it, anyway!

I've heard of gypsy lee... it didn't spring to mind when you said Rosalie.

OpalIridescence · 27/06/2017 20:00

Nope he is not alone, my husband vetoed the name for the same reason and also something about it being rhyming slang for a cup of tea Hmm

I think it's a beautiful name.
