Re: Rosalind vs Rosaline
in reply to a message by EMB
Rosalind doesn't have pronunciation issues. Rosaline does - rose-a-lin, rose-a-lien, rose-a-leen, and that's before you get to the Rose versus Roz possibilities.
When I say it, and when all the Rosalind people I've ever known have said it, it's been Roz-a-lind and they haven't had nns. Rosanne has a roz as well, but Rosemary, Rosamond and Rosalie all have rose-. Could be different in other dialects.
