Rose?

What do you think of Rose? (Second name will be Elizabeth) sure name starts with H.
Is it too plain? I like it but not sure.. any suggestions? (avoiding names with E or L in them- both sisters have names with those letters 🤦🏽‍♀️)
Thank you!

Too plain and boring. Just seems very unimaginative and she will most likely become Rosie (which is not great IMO).

LouiseTrees · 28/04/2020 22:33

I think Rosa rather than Rose but Rose is a lovely name and not super common

DramaAlpaca · 28/04/2020 22:34

It's gorgeous, classic and timeless, certainly not too plain. I love Rose Elizabeth, and I like Rosie too.

GOODCAT · 28/04/2020 22:36

Really like Rose. Classy and warm. I also like Rosie.

I prefer Rosa. I liked it for a girl’s name but found middle names quite hard, the a at the end didn’t go with any middle names I liked.

MrsP2015 · 28/04/2020 22:40

Rose is pretty.

Go for it if it's the name you like - what are sisters names?

Rose may sound odd if the other 2 are starlight and princess 😂 (names used as joke examples obviously although nothing against the names!)

CheriLittlebottom · 28/04/2020 22:41

Love it. There's another thread running now with all positive responses to Rose.

Tillygetsit · 28/04/2020 22:46

Love Rose

We’ve recently used Rose as our second daughter’s middle name. She’s six months old now.

KatherineJaneway · 29/04/2020 06:30

I like Rose.

oooompa · 29/04/2020 06:43

I love the name Rose, it was on our list for DD2 but we ended up using it for a middle name. If I'd have thought we might have gone for baby number 3 Rose would have been the first choice but we knew we'd not have 3.

Elizabeth is also a beautiful name, but then again I'm biased because DD1 is an Elizabeth!

GaraMedouar · 29/04/2020 06:45

Love Rose !

Goostacean · 29/04/2020 06:49

It's gorgeous, classic and timeless, certainly not too plain.

Agreed!

saffy1234 · 29/04/2020 06:52

Love the name Rose.Beautiful .Rosa has become common so go with Rose

MrsP2015 · 29/04/2020 06:53

Matches with other names perfect.

Good choice.

daisypond · 29/04/2020 07:03

It’s nice, and so much nicer as a first name than a middle name.

hayley2257 · 29/04/2020 07:36

I really like Rose, but love Rosa!!

toughgetsgoing · 29/04/2020 09:28

Rose is a classy, timeless name. She can go by Rosie or Rose and switch between the two even. Perfect for a strong name and also a nickname if she finds Rose too plain. Not the most exciting name but it's not too girly which I find the problem with many girls names, and it's easy to spell and say and the sound of it isn't unattractive
