Re: Rose?
in reply to a message by Aine
I love seeing filler mns used as fns. Rose is so simple and enduring that it makes a gorgeous fn. But Ruby and Rose as siblings would make my teeth hurt.
Rose Leontine ("LAY-un-teen"), to honor Leonie perhaps?
Rose Myfanwy ("mi-VAWN-wee") is my favorite combo. But it's an acquired taste. So how about:
Rose Morwenna
Rose Elena
Rose Laurentia ("lo-REN-shuh") / Laurentine ("LOR-en-teen")
Rose Mairead
Rose Eibhlin
Rose Dominique
Rose Veronique
Rose Lucienne
Rose Pascaline
Rose Brigitte (German pronunciation works best, I think)
Rose Melusine
Rose Wilhelmina
Rose Anastasia
Rose Ariadne
Rose Evadne
Rose Theodora
Rose Victoria
Rose Genevieve
Rose Lucinda
Rose Antonella
Rose Dulcinea
Rose Galatea
Rose Mehetabel
Rose Yesenia
Rose Anjali
Rose Hannelore
Rose Arabella
Rose Mavourneen
Rose Felicitas
Rose Carlotta
Rose Eleanora
Rose Franziska
Rose Melisande
Rose Honora
Rose Adelaide
Oh, the mn fun you can have with a simple fn like Rose. Do any of them tickle your fancy this fine day?
