Rosalie Claudia or India?

I have already: Saskia, Everly, Adelyn, Yasmin

I think Rosalie might be my fave but a friend said it was an 'old lady's name' which put me off a bit.

Claudia is my favourite of those, although are you pronouncing it starting like ‘claw’ or like ‘cloud’?

Claudia. Rosalie reminds me of a name for a gypsy fortune teller in old fashiond books. India I think is fairly well used now.

I prefer Claudia but I like Rosalie. I don’t like India at all. Claudia and Saskia are similar with the same endings. Your DC have very different sorts of names, so maybe Rosalie fits best - a style of its own. I don’t think it’s old lady.

Rosalie is really pretty. And it's about the intonation so you don't get Gypsy Rose Lee. It's not Rosa-Lee it's Rosalie as one word.

Claudia is fantastic, and great with the siblings. India is okay, but too redolent of colonial ideas for me. Rosalie is too frilly and would only suit a few people. It's one of the few names I really dislike.

Claudia if "Claw-dia" pronunciation.

Otherwise Rosalie. More nickname potential, which may be a good thing or a bad thing!

Claudia by a mile.

MadameRenard · 17/07/2019 20:33

I love Rosalie, but I was a fan of Grimm and one of the characters was called that which is why it stands our to me! Still a very pretty name though.

IggyAce · 17/07/2019 20:34

Rosalie, if ds had been a dd this is the name I would have picked.

DramaAlpaca · 17/07/2019 23:05

Rosalie, by a long way.

username1724 · 17/07/2019 23:15

Love Rosalie. Not a fan of Claudia at all..

twattymctwatterson · 18/07/2019 00:58

I like Rosalie. My aunt had a very grumpy cat cat named Claudia so I just think "arsehole cat" when I hear the name

Pemba · 18/07/2019 01:08

Not India.

Claudia would be my favourite, but Rosalie is pretty and I don't think it's regarded as 'old ladyish'.

Tillygetsit · 19/07/2019 23:30

Rosalie. I too loved Grimm!

IVflytrap · 19/07/2019 23:49

Rosalie. Claudia as a close runner up.

Prefer Rosalie or India. Really dislike Claudia.

Rosalie. Don't like Claudia and it has a horrible meaning ('lame', 'crippled')
