[Opinions] Re: Rose, Rosalind, or Rosalie? (m)
in reply to a message by Billina
Rosalie comes across as froufrou or try-hard. It's like a pretty dress with a garish bow.
Rose could be okay, but to me, it sounds more like a shade of blush or a pony than it does a person. It actually doesn't remind me of the flower that much...I guess because I hear that as plural most often.
I'd prefer Rosa to either of those, if I wanted that 'rows' sound.
But I prefer Rosalind, ultimately. I think it's well-balanced enough to be wearable, plus Roz is buzzy. It's dark red, while the other two are pink (seems more robust).
