This name is not used in France.

This name was used in France - very little though - in the early 20th century. It "peaked" in the 1950s, with 35 children given the name.

I am so thankful I found this beautiful name. I am going to use it as a middle name for my future daughter. After finding it here, I googled it, and it seems there are quite a few female Rosaires around. LOVE IT!

I really like this! To me, it sounds like a masculine name, but with a feminine meaning, so it really could go either way. It seems aristocratic almost and when I think of this name I think of a tall man from the 1800s.

I found this name by accident, and I'm surprised that it's listed solely as a masculine name. It looks and sounds feminine to me. (And I'm semi-fluent in French, so I'm not trying to butcher French names/vocabulary, or anything.) I like it a lot as a feminine name.

The spelling does look a tad feminine, but I love this as a masculine name.

Not given in France.

To those who wrote that the name is not given in France: right, it's more of a Quebecois name. Different culture, history, and use of the French language. It was my partner's grandfather's name in Quebec.

Knew a Rosaire. Sweetest, kindest, most gentle fellow I ever met. Such a beautiful soul. He's not around anymore, but I still love him. In turn, I love the name. So beautiful.
And yes, he was French. The name is used in France.
