I have a great aunt called Rosetta,who everyone calls Rosie.
I haven't heard of Rosita before but quite like Rosa

I have problems with Rosa due to my surname(thats on another whole thread) but Rosita waas suggested, DH quite likes it (which is amazing) so I thought we could use it and shorten it to Rosa which I love

Rosita is a nice name, but I'm certain that it is a diminutive of Rosa in Spanish, ie the formal name is Rosa, and the nickname is Rosita, just as the diminutive of Eva is Evita.

But that is just the pedant in me.

It's my MIL's name so will always be a small, whingey, Italian, old lady's name for me.

I prefer Rosa which I think is lovely .

HelpwithNameNeeded · 12/03/2009 20:06

I love Rosa but because of surname (Lee) I think Rosita would be better as an 'offical' name and Rosa as nickname

It's the name of Joey's Barca Lounger in Friends

so, No.

mrsruffallo · 12/03/2009 20:09

I like Rosalita

ItsNotOnlyTheGoodBits · 12/03/2009 20:11

Good choices here - another one to throw into the mix - Rosalia?

ItsNotOnlyTheGoodBits · 12/03/2009 20:12

Oh maybe not with your surname though

Bakersman · 12/03/2009 20:13

I like it

LynetteScavo · 12/03/2009 20:14

I think Rosa Lee is OK.

Rosita sounds like a short tubby house keeeper in a hotel to me.

Rosanna is nice.

LauriefairycakeeatsCupid · 12/03/2009 20:16

but won't they have the piss taken out of them for Gypsy Rose Lee?

HelpwithNameNeeded · 12/03/2009 20:22

That is my worry Laurie
