HelpRe: Rosalind, Rosemary and Rosamund...
in reply to a message by ClaireDeLune
Interesting pronunciation issues! Rosemary and Rosamund (I prefer the symmetry of Rosamond) start with Rose, but Rosalind surely starts with Roz? Like Roswitha?
I prefer Rosamond, then Rosemary, then Rosabel probably. Rosalind doesn't appeal to me nearly as much, perhaps because of a bad experience with a Rosalind colleague who did her name no favours. But the Shakespeare link is good. I don't hear any of them as clunky at all.
As for Lucius, I think Rosemary would be the best match.
