HelpRe: Thoughts on a nickname for my still-regretful name choice....
in reply to a message by anxiolytics
I don't like far fetched nicknames so Rosalie nn Zalia doesn't work for me. If it works for you, you should use it. I love Rosie! I know you don't like it so I guess it's not an option. Do you like Lee? It's very simple but could work as a nickname. Rose or Rosa? I would pronounce Zalia ZAH-lee-ah. It is quite similar to Thalia which I like pronounced TAH-lee-ah but I also like tah-LEE-ah (I know the original pronunciation is tha-LYE-ah but I don't care too much for it).
I'm sorry that you really seem to dislike her name now and your husband won't consider changing it. I can imagine how awful that must feel. But I just wanted to say that Rosalie Violet is a really beautiful combo that makes me think of a beautiful garden full of pink and purple flowers with a little fountain in the middle of it. It's a gorgeous image.
As I'm not really a fan of nicknames and Rosie, Rose and Rosa are the only ones that make sense to me (and maybe Lee) I would suggest that you open a thread and let people tell you all the things they love about Rosalie. I think it could make you feel a lot better about her name. I'm sure many people love it and even those who don't will be able to tell you some good things about her name.
I like Violet better than Rosalie but that's probably because I know a very lovely, beautiful girl named Violet and associate it with her. Rosalie has really grown on me and I like it a lot right now.
