Just that really! DH loves Rosalie…I still think it has hints of the Twilight saga after all this time..

Rosalie as PP mentioned Rosie Lea Tea, I love Rosalia though and Rozalia (Ro-Zah-lee-ah).

I quite like Nancy but how about Nina?

Daphne reminds me of Scooby doo and 1980s Neighbours

Nancy definitely top, love Daphne too, Rosalie just no for me. First two are kinda vintage cool and Rosalie more twee meh uncool.
I agree with this. I’m my opinion Nancy and Daphne are both names which are full of personality whilst remaining quite classical.

Rosalie sounds a bit portmanteau and twee.

I like Rosalie. Daphne is okay. I can't stand Nancy.

Rosalie. Nn Rose, Rosie.

Full disclosure I have an 8 yo Rosalie. I've never been asked once about twilight or if I'm a fan!

DDSMUM2 · 07/09/2021 23:21

I love Rosalie! I didn’t think of Twilight and think since it’s not a main character you should be ok?

I don’t love Daphne and Nancy as much.. just don’t sound as pretty!

RaoulDufysCat · 07/09/2021 23:22

These are all kind of terrible. Nancy is the least bad.

Really dislike all 3.
Daphne softs like dafty
Rosalie slang for cup of tea
Nancy just hate it.
What about
Katie
Lucy
Rosemary
Millie

I like Daphne best, don’t mind Rosalie, and dislike Nancy. I don’t think Rosalie is too associated with Twilight - almost every name has been used in some form of popular culture and Twilight’s not exactly ‘cool’ anymore. Different if you called your child Renesmee.

Rosalie is really pretty and could be shortened to Rosa which is lovely too

adeleh · 07/09/2021 23:51

Rosalie is lovely. I wouldn’t go for Nancy or Daphne

Nancy 💜
