@Tutina02 Rose would be my preference (I’ve used it myself) although they’re both lovely and other pps are right about June being less commonplace if such things bother you

June us nice but it screams "old"... like an old persons name. What about a variation of Rose, i.e. Rosa? Rosemary?

June is lovely.
Rose is ok but it's very overused I think.

June

My friend's kid is called Juniper with 'June' and 'Juni' as nicknames. I love Rose but it does feel a bit overused, atm.

June!

June sounds dated and not in a good way - Terry and June.

Rose is lovely, and I think goes better with Elizabeth.

I think Rose goes better with Elizabeth. But I think Rose is starting to become popular and a little over used. June is just as delightful but it’s a little more fresher and unheard of.

Both are beautiful, sweet names though Smile

I dont really like either, but enough with the Roses/Rosas/Rosies now!!!

Crunchymum · 07/06/2020 14:16

I'm afraid I prefer the names the other way round

Elizabeth June or Elizabeth Rose.

I don't think either of them work well the other way (June Elizabeth or Rose Elizabeth)

I love Rose but I'd pick a different middle name.

KatherineJaneway · 07/06/2020 14:18

Rose

Rose is much nicer, June is very dated although I love Juno.

Epigram · 07/06/2020 14:19

Rose

Tatum1234 · 07/06/2020 14:19

Rosa is also lovely.

Fifthtimelucky · 07/06/2020 14:31

I'd also go for Elizabeth Rose. I think names look unbalanced when the middle name is much longer than the first one.
