Rose by itself is super graceful and powerful. I don't really like other Ros-names as much. But neither do I have the boldness to name a baby Rose. I just admire when others do. And I'm a bit disappointed when they water it down as cutesy "Rosalie." Or Rosie.

Even Rosalind and Rose-Marie are a bit watered down compared to Rose by itself, but I do like them.

My gp favorite Rose-name is Rosemarine or Rosmarina - but that's more Rosemary-ish, and I think of Rosemary as a totally different name.

I love it, but prefer it as a middle name (even though it is overdone). I also like Rosalind.

Rose-Marie is very cute! I think I would have done Rosemarie.

Rosalie is too cutesy for me personally. It makes me think of a piglet in a tutu eating glittery cupcakes. Rosalind is beautiful and elegant. Rosalinda is again too much. But I like Rosalia.

Love it as a first name! Partly for sentimental reasons, though not a family name. It has, sadly, become too generic as a middle name for me. And I tend to like the vast majority of names that have Rose in them.

Lovely name. Roses are also really nice.

I understand how you feel, there are so many Anne's, Anna's and An- -an, -ana names in my family it's impossible to keep track of all of them. Currently with just immediate family, aunt's, grandma's & 1st cousins there are 7 of us with names containing Ann in some form or another if I did ever decide to continue the trend at least there's no shortage of -ana names to chose from. I really like Rose but it's mostly in my taste of middle names, it feels a little plain in the first spot for me but it's still nice. Do you like Rosella or Rosaria? Rosalinda is lovely btw I myself like the NN possibility of Lindy as well.

It's very conventionally pretty, but I prefer Rosalie, Rosalind, and Rosamund.

I love it!

Rosalie with the nn Rose is in my top 5 favorite names for girls.

I'm not big on flower names in general, and I prefer Rose as an element in, eg, Rosamond, Rosemary, Maryrose, Rosalind ... and as a nn for any of them.

Rose is timeless. I love it sm!

Nice, Rosalie and Rosalind is nice too

It's beautiful but nothing too special really.
