I like it more than I used to but most likely would not use it. I prefer Rosalinda and like Rosie as a NN for Rose names. I don't like Roz or Ros pronounced like "rahz".

I like Rosalind and the nickname Ros/Roz.

I love it. I like Rosalinda a bit better, but they are both beautiful. What about Rosa or Lindy for a nickname?

I adore Rosalind! I think she’s a romantic & regal name. I also don’t love Roz, it’s not my taste but it isn’t bad. I don’t like Sally or Lindy either, I guess I would use Rose/Rosie but I saw someone on Nameberry suggest Ozzie as a nn for it and I honestly think that would be really cute too!

I like it said with the long “O” sound.

It's ok, Rosie or Rose are good nn

I used to like it a lot, but now prefer Rosaline since it looks and sounds softer. Roz is fine as a nickname, but I like Rose better.

I quite like it with a short o sound, not a long o as in Rose.

I like it as well, though I much prefer the pronunciation of "ROSE-uh-lind" to "RAWZ-uh-lind". Rosalind is a very classy name, that has a spunky yet gentle feeling to it.

I love it! It’s Shakespearean, Germanic, pseudo-Latinate, and Old Hollywood.

Roz is very brassy, which I appreciate. Sally and Lindy would be cute, too.

ETA: It would never occur to me to pronounce the first syllable “Rose”; it’s all “ROZ” to me.

I love Rosalind in theory. I've never come across it in real life, on a living person, though.

I do enjoy Roz, so that helps. I bet a Rosalind could still go by Rose or Rosie.
