Rosemary is one of my favorite names unfortunately it's not a very usable name for me. I've met a couple Rosemarys over my lifetime and they've gone by
Rose,
Rosie or
Rosemary so I think it's definitely possible to use the full name
Rosemary instead of a nn. If I was able to use
Rosemary I would most certainly use
Rosemary and not
Rose or any other nn.
Edmund, along with other "
Ed" names have never really struck my fancy.
I think
Rosemary,
Edmund,
Miles and
Arthur all fit together quite fine imo.
