Bree or Rose??
Which do you like better (both for girl) and what middle names go with them?

Rose, definitely. Bree sounds like Brie, a cheese.

I prefer the classic Rose to Bree...while Bree is just as good, it is commonly used as a nn for trendy (as in popular) Breanna/Brianna and it's variants. Rose, IMO, is a classic, underused name. I do think Bree & Rose would make a good twin/sib set! :)

I love Bree, although I don't think I'd ever use it because it's meaning is unknown (that's a personal thing - don't let it bother you!).
What about . . .
Bree Celeste
Bree Siobhan
Bree Lillian
Bree Charlotte
Bree Margaret
Bree Lysbeth
Bree Caroline
Bree Sarah
Bree Narelle
Bree Diana
Bree Davida
Rose is also nice. Some suggestions:
Rose Marissa
Rose Margaret
Rose Lucinda
Rose Diane
Rose Verity
Rose Vivienne
Rose Maria

I like Rose better. Bree sounds rather nicknamey, and a little too cute for my tastes. Plus, it reminds me of cheese. Sorry.
I don't know what your naming style is, but here are some mn suggestions anyway. Most of these would work for either name.
Alexandra
Elisabeth
Felicia
Isadora
Josephine
Madeline
Marie
Melinda
Olivia
Sophia
Susannah
Not many middle names seem to flow with Bree or Rose, unfortunately. I think longer names sound best.

Bree is more of a nn, to me. It's not substantial enough to stand on its own.
Rose, OTOH, is great. It's nice to see someone consider it for a fn, instead of the overused mn spot. How about:
Rose Caroline
Rose Elizabeth
Rose Olivia
Rose Alexandra
Rose Anastasia
Rose Emilia / Amelia
Rose Dominique
Rose Amelie
Rose Josephine
Rose Genevieve
Rose Isabelle
Rose Hermione
Rose Cassandra
Rose Eileen
Rose Sinead
Rose Cathleen / Catriona
Rose Fiona / Finola

Bree is short for Breanna!
Bree is a nickname for Breanna. I know because I played Captain Bree in a show. Her given name was Breanna (bree-ON-a).
Anyway,
Breanna Kathleen
Breanna Renee
Breanna Jeanne
Breanna Katharine
Breanna Eileen (this was her actual given name)
Rose works best as a middle name in my opinion. Breanna Rose is cute.

No, it isn't . . .
Bree is a place in Belgium and a surname, so it has every right to be considered a whole and individual name. If it is used as a nickname for Briana or Bridget that's a different thing.

Not always. I've met several people named just Bree
