Thoughts on the name Rosa?

I found a relative in my family history whose last name was Rosa. I was initially thinking of using as a middle name but now I'm thinking about using it a first name instead.

What are your thoughts on it?

Our niece is called Rosa. I think it is a lovely name.

I love it, it's one of my favourite girls names and it has a good history of strong women attached to it.

Wonderful name.

Pretty in its own right, and instantly makes me think of Rosa Parks. Smile

It's a beautiful name. Lovely for a little girl and very elegant for an adult.

OpalIridescence · 21/09/2017 18:03

I know an eight year old Rosa, it's a beautiful name.

I love it and would have used it for dd3 but it just doesn't work with our surname.

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 21/09/2017 19:03

It’s very pretty, but not babyish. I think it’s a lovely name :)

mintich · 21/09/2017 19:06

Love!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 21/09/2017 19:19

Beautiful. Makes me think of the fantastic and Inspirational Rosa Parks

Discombobulated42 · 21/09/2017 19:20

Very pretty

I had a bit of girl crush on Rosa Luxemburg when I was at school so it's a big yes here.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 21/09/2017 20:07

Rosa is lovely !

RaininSummer · 21/09/2017 20:21

My Spanish teacher was called Rosa. It is a pretty but also kind of strong name, great.

ichbineinstasumer · 21/09/2017 20:22

afraid I don't like - it sounds unfinshed to my ear

Poppyfields21 · 21/09/2017 20:23

I love it, so pretty but suits all life stages too

TempsPerdu · 21/09/2017 20:44

Love it - we're currently expecting a girl and it's on our shortlist.

MikeUniformMike · 21/09/2017 20:56

I like it.

MadisonAvenue · 21/09/2017 20:59

Really beautiful, makes me think of Rosa Parks.

myrtleWilson · 21/09/2017 21:02

We have it as a middle name - after Rosa Luxembourg. I (obviously) really like it!
