We are due our baby girl very soon and are still stuck for a name.

We have today discussed Rosa or Rosie. Which do you prefer?

Other name suggestions are welcome our 1st child is called Isla 🙂 surname is 1 syllable

Rosa, Rosie is too little girly as a full name, it’s popular but lovely

Adela, Stella, Esther, Frances, Lois, Serena, Philippa nn Pippa, Ffion, Seren, Rowan might be others

I'd go for c) Rose.

DobbyHP · 27/03/2022 15:51

Another name thrown into the mix is Paige. This has been a name he's loved for months but I'm not keen. I have no idea why I dont like it though

Rosa, but I prefer Rose.

Redsquirrel5 · 27/03/2022 15:57

My friend’s daughter is called Rosa and I think I would chose it over Rosie. A friend of my grandparents has a daughter called Rosalie which is unusual. School friends might shorten it anyway but at least the person has a choice then.

Congratulations on your imminent birth.

Rosa. You can still call her Rosie sometimes.

HerculesMulligan · 27/03/2022 16:16

Rosa. Rosa Parks, Rosa Luxemberg, Rosa Diaz. But I think it's too close to Isla.

Rosa is gorgeous

Rosie is nice for a little girl

Paige is awful, sorry

17caterpillars1mouse · 27/03/2022 18:14

Rosa, I find Rosie a bit twee.

My favourite Rose names are Rosalin and Rosalind though

Roselilly36 · 27/03/2022 18:45

I love Rosa, and Rosena.

MaidEdithofAragon · 27/03/2022 18:47

Rosanna

DramaAlpaca · 27/03/2022 18:49

Rosa, to be known as Rosie as a diminutive.

Definitely not Paige. It was never a nice name and it's seriously dated now.

Nosetickle · 27/03/2022 19:04

Both lovely. How about Rosanna and let her choose the nickname she prefers.

Nosetickle · 27/03/2022 19:06

No not Paige. It’s not awful but nowhere near as nice as Rosa/Rosie.

Liv999 · 27/03/2022 19:56

Rosie is beautiful, also really like Paige, it's quite unusual now

CiderWithLizzie · 27/03/2022 19:58

Rose with Rosie as the diminutive 🌹
