Rose and Mary but not rosemary

Hi there, would appreciate some ideas.
Expecting a baby girl. I love the name Rose and have my heart set on calling my daughter this, have loved this since I was a child. However we would like a variation of Mary as a middle name. (family name/ also like the religious link as a Catholic)

I am also open to a Variation of rose followed by Mary but will use Rose anyway on a daily basis. Not a fan of rosemary. Last name is Irish - think O'
I was thinking

Rose Maria
Roisin mary

But I am stuck there
Or do I have no choice and have to go with rose as a middle name on paper but call her Rose anyway.

Any suggestions welcome. Thanks a mil!

Rose Moira.

Or make her first name Rosie?

I agree I like Rose and Mary but not Rosemary. Mary Rose is a ship to me.

I like:
Roisin Mary
Rose Elizabeth Mary
Rosalie Mary
Rose Marissa
Rosamund Mary

What about Primrose?

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 16/10/2023 07:12

Rosita is a nice variation on Rose, abbreviates to Rose or Rosie easily and is a bit unusual.

Rosita Marie

I really like Rose. Roisin isn´t my cup of tea.

Rose Maria is nice. I also like the suggestion of a third middle name.

Rose Ariadne Mary/Maria
Rose Elizabeth Mary
Rose Isabella Maria
Rose Beatrice Maria
Rose Cecilia Maria/Mary

It may be just me, but Mary Rose just makes me think of the ship of the same name

Or prawn cocktail sauce.

What about Mhari or Mhairi which is Scottish?
