I love it. But my mom and sister said it sounds too Spanish 😂 thoughts?

It's absolutely lovely but I wouldn't discuss names with your family before LO arrives. They could put you off a name that you really love.

Just discuss it here on MN Smile

becca3210 · 30/12/2021 13:21

Beautiful 😍

Agree with the above poster. If you do discuss names, discuss many names and keep it general.

I really like Rosa. It's a yes from me.

RedRobin100 · 30/12/2021 13:23

Love it

RedRobin100 · 30/12/2021 13:24

Also 💯 never discuss names with family in advance unless you want them to melt your head

I'm Italian so biased ..I love it. Few other similar options:

Rosina
Rosetta
Rosalia

I'm so relieved with the first few replies. Yes they've put me off a few already but my heart comes back to them. Putting this firmly back on the list 💕

Do, it's lovely.

Flutterflybutterby · 30/12/2021 13:37

It's beautiful.

Viviennemary · 30/12/2021 13:38

I really like it.

Really pretty , use it , btw
It’s not up to anyone but you and your partner

wingsofabird · 30/12/2021 14:00

It's really nice but does merge a bit with all the popular Ro names - Rory Ronnie Roman Robyn Rose's etc. All those names top 100 and rising so likely to be quite a few in the class.

RedCandyApple · 30/12/2021 14:00

Lovely

FeedMeSantiago · 30/12/2021 14:08

I love it!

urbanbuddha · 30/12/2021 14:26

Love Rosa. One of my very favourite girls' names.
Have a couple of names that made it on to the short list, but not the short short list, and feed these to people as names that you're thinking of.

Ladybird900 · 30/12/2021 14:27

Rosa is really lovely. Pretty and strong.

GrendelsGrandma · 30/12/2021 14:28

I like it. Also Rosita and Rosalie.

Don't discuss names with family though! It is not possible to find a name with 100% approval.

Lovely. I know a three year old one and she is a gorgeous, feisty little girl. Her heritage is British, with a very British sounding surname and it definitely works without a Mediterranean connection.

liveforsummer · 30/12/2021 15:07

It's lovely, i know a little girl called it and she's amazing. Once of those real forces of nature with a huge personality.

LavenderRosemary · 30/12/2021 15:12

Lovely name

yikesanotherbooboo · 30/12/2021 15:23

I love Rosa .

MoominMeggy · 30/12/2021 16:25

I really like it. I know two born in the last couple of years. Probably prefer Rose though.

CremeEggThief · 30/12/2021 16:26

Oh I love it! FAR prefer it as a first name to Rose.

SpottyStripyDuvet · 30/12/2021 16:30

It's my favourite girls name and DS would have been Rosa if he had been a girl. Lovely name but also some strong examples of women who changed the world.

Foxglovers · 30/12/2021 16:50

I absolutely love the blame Rosa - it was on my list but was a no from DP! I think you should use it. I would love to be called Rosa, very elegant sounding name but also a bit of a bohemian side
