Nickname Showdown!

Dolly, because I think it's cute in a retro sort of way, whereas Dottie would just make me think Dorothea was not too bright or absent-minded.
Roz because it's edgy and I love the sound of it. Rosie isn't too bad, really, just boring to me. It also makes me think of someone overweight, due to a personal association.
Rosamond is very pretty. I love most Rose names, they seem very romantic to me.

If I saw someone named Dorothea or Rosamund, I would enjoy saying the full mellifluous Dorothea or Rosamund. I have a friend named Dorothea, and I find it so simple when people call her Dori. What's Dori when Dorothea is is available?! I would also NOT be able to resist enunciating Rosamund to perfection (like Lady Grantham).
