I love the name Rosalind! It's one of my favorites. It's a beautiful name and I think it works great for a child or an adult or an old lady, especially if you call her Rosie as a kid or something. It's old-fashioned, without being ugly, it actually feels more classic even though it was never too terribly popular. And right now, it's really uncommon, but definitely not weird. It's also very feminine, but strong at the same time. Just like everyone else said, I love it!

I love Rosalind. It took me a while to come around to it, but now I think it's beautiful without being frilly. It reminds me of white lace and a dusty rose color. I love the vaguely Medieval feeling I get from it, too.

Rosalind is gorgeous. It's a stately, dignified name that manages to feel kind of dainty and a little whimsical at the same time.

I love Rosalind. It's one of those names just outside my favorites list. It hangs out there with the names Aurelia, Marguerite, Ariadne, Jacqueline, Ursula, Justine, Aurora, Gwendolen, Francesca, Persephone, Marianna, Guinevere, Alanna, and some others. I consider them strong Princess names that have a romantic sound but a creative edge. Serafina, Genevieve, and Miranda also fall into the same category except that they actually made it into my favorites list.

I absolutely adore Rosalind! It's at once dignified and down to earth, stuffy and approachable, staid and sprightly.

Rosalind is absolutely beautiful and rolls nicely off the tongue. It's one of my all-time favourites. There was a Rosalind at school and that's when I fell in love with the name. It's a pity it was shortened to Ros!
I also worked with a Rosamond (her middle name, used in preference to her first name, Margaret), invariably called Ros as well. Rosamond is also nice and prettier imo than Rosamund, but not as gorgeous as Rosalind.

I adore it. Rosalind is gorgeous and stately and timeless, and so rare and strong! I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this name. It takes a flower name and makes it not a sissy name. Rosalind packs a punch that something like Liliana doesn't.
