Rosalia? (more)
For what it's worth, I personally love everything about Rosalie Violet Kelley (and I don't typically go for 2 middle names!). Rosalie is in my top 10 and it suits every age. Violet is very pretty and while it is gaining popularity, I haven't actually met any in real life. I much prefer Kelley with this spelling (as opposed to Kelly or any other). Finally, the whole combo has a wonderful flow and fits in quite well with her sibling's names without being matchy. I also wonder how changing her name at this point will affect your older kids?With all that in mind, how do you feel about Rosalia Violet Kelley? It's so similar to Rosalie, but it ends in the 'a' and the pronunciation should be more natural to others.

oh and I do think it would affect my older kids, my little boy (almost 7) is not keen on the idea of changing it. However, my oldest DD has not been as opposed, since she likes the other choices more.

HI1 It's actually my last (married) name that is Kelley, I just have it all as I figured everyone needed all the info-but I am lad you like the flow-it means a lot to hear these endorsements. i do agree, it does suit every age kind of well, I am just having a hard time re-liking it now that I have unliked it!I don't care for Rosalia, and I think it would suffer from similar name mispronunciations (Rose-a-LEE-ah, or Ros-AhL'-ya, etc.) Thank you for the ideas and just as importantly, the support.
