Re: Rosalind?

Definitely more fairy-like than floozy, and it would be quite nice to see one, but it's not something I'd consider because you're right, there's something harsh about the sound. Prefer the French Roseline / Roselyne.

I'd say Roseline the same way though, because of my "accent" I suppose. ROZ-a-lyne. Even if I try to soften it, the S still sounds zed-like...damn me and my filthy north american mouth.
It's more like roz-e-LEEN, with the e being very short. The leen sound's a bit softer than lind, well, for me anyway :)
