Help me pick names for a daughter

My surname is Cooper. I am of course open to other suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Rose appears frequently because it's similar to Róża, the name of my (Polish) DW's beloved grandmother. Rose actually originates from a Norman name meaning "famous type" but was from an early date associated with the flower (thought that was interesting).

P.S. I realise that Rose isn't strictly speaking a diminutive of Rosalind but find "Roz" a little harsh.

All the names are lovely, and interesting facts about the name Rose!

I voted for Beatrix/Beatrice Rose. I really like the spelling Beatrix.

Is this a new feature? Haven’t come across it before. I voted Beatrice Rose.

Suchardchoccy · 01/04/2024 22:00

I have a Rose!

They are all very overused (again) - well Millicent isn’t, but Milly is

How about Cecilia as a first name?

Using Ibbie rather than Izzy as a nn for Isabel also helps

Or Winifred.. it’s quite a strong flavour though

Christabel
Cecile
Jocelyn
Estella
Astrid
Miranda
Marianne
Alicia
Genevieve
Imogen
Emmeline
Frances

I'm on the app so can't see or vote for you names. Might be an idea to write the options so everyone can see the options?

What about Minnie cooper.. ...I'm joking of course

Moreteaandchocolate · 01/04/2024 22:14

I voted for Evelyn Winifred- I know Evie is popular but I do know an Evelyn who is known by her full name, and it sounds lovely.

I also really like Rose or Rosa and Ella.

Other ideas-

Annabel “Annie” Rose
Emily or Emilia “Milly” Rose
Lilia Rose
Sophia Rose
Florence Rose
Louisa Rose
Eliza Rose

Beatrice Rose is lovely!

KirstenBlest · 03/04/2024 09:50

Can't see the names but suggest Juliana (Jilly), Thomasina (Tommi) and Henrietta (Henri) Wink

tearsintherain · 03/04/2024 11:10

I voted for Millicent shortened to Millie.
I also really like Eleanor shortened to Nell.

Other ideas
Theodora
Genevieve
Rosanna
Rosalie
Emmeline
Leonora

Beatrice nn Bea Cooper sounds a bit too like Bee Keeper! 🐝
I also don't think you can use Millie Anne!

KirstenBlest · 03/04/2024 11:57

@EldritchHorrorEnjoyer , I'd use Róża as the middle name. Rose is overused as a middle name, so any connection won't be noticeable, and about a quarter of the girls in her class will be Something Rose.

Or use Róża as the first name.

Beatrix/Beatrice gets my vote. Just my favourites of your name options. I like Rose but not Rosalind. I love Rosanna and would use that if I had another girl

BostonMA · 03/04/2024 14:53

Beatrix 💓

Notellinganyone · 03/04/2024 15:15

Rosalind Cecilia. Both lovely names, although why not just go for the Polish spelling? Rosamund is also a great name.

StarLight201 · 03/04/2024 15:27

I am not too keen on Rosalind Cecilia - is Cecilia Rose an option as I love that?

I like Isabel but not keen on Ibby.

Beatrice/Beatrix Rose or Eleanor Rose is nice.

I like Evelyn - could that be paired with Rose?

Not keen on Millicent, I would prob use Amelia if I wanted a little Millie.

RosaSkyes · 03/04/2024 15:39

Beatrix Rosa
