Help[Opinions] Rosina
I adore Rosa as you all know, and I've also warmed to Rose Catherine and Rose Elizabeth and such as combos, and Virginia Rose, but I also like Rosina. I NEVER see it mentioned here. I have, in my life, a multitude of string players, and the name reminds me of them, because it reminds me of rosin, which is a lovely amber color.
I think Rosina deserves mention today.

I never considered it before.
I like it! Rose doesn't need dressing up, but Rosina adds a little mystery without going over-the-top.

It's ok, but personally I'm not a huge fan of Rose/Rosa or of -ina names.

I love it! I think it's very beautiful.

I don't mind it, but I do prefer Rosa (and Rose, Rosanna, Rosemary, Rosalie...). Now that you've mentioned rosin I can't un-see that in Rosina.

I love this name! It's pretty but strong.

I've always championed Rosina! It's so svelte and crystalline.

It's pretty.

Rosina makes me think of one of the best mezzo-soprano roles in opera as well, from Il barbiere di Siviglia. So, a very musical name.
As someone that is also a fan of Rose names (and it is one the hubby likes, too), I really like Rosina. I'd want a sturdy, less frilly middle name to counteract it.
Rosina Catherine comes to mind.

I definitely see the potential but 'rosin' is how you say 'raisin' where I live, so I'm not a fan.

Raisin? That pronunciation is very counterintuitive to me.

I think she means that "rosin" is the word for "raisin" in whatever language is spoken where she lives.

Yes, that's what I meant, sorry for the confusion!

There were a few Rosinas in my family - I think it had a little popularity surge in the UK round about the 1880s, not sure when or why it fell out of fashion. It's pretty and definitely usable. Hadn't thought of the rosin connection, but I like that too.
