HelpRe: Rosie
in reply to a message by Lily
I think Rosie is an adorable nickname, but too cutesy to stand on its own. I can't imagine someone in a formal or professional situation being called Rosie.
One of my favorite great aunts is nicknamed Rosie, which is short for Rosalie. I've always thought Rosalie was a beautiful name and you can imagine my surprise that it's getting common. Dude. But anyway, I really like Rosalie and I also like just Rose. I get a beautiful image from it involving mahogany pianos. I went to high school with a nice girl named Rose, too.
Hmm, to rank those best to worst:
Rose
Rosemary
Mary Rose
Rosie
Rosaline (I pronounce it ROZ-a-lin, but I like your prn. better)
I know one Rosemary (hi, Roseberry! :P) and one Rosaline (not sure how she spelled it, but she went by Roz). I think Rosie could be a fine nickname for a double fn with Rose in the second spot.
I know you didn't ask for more Rose name suggestions, but I also love Roisin, Rhosyn, and Rosemarie, which could work as fns.
