Probably an unpopular opinion, but as a boy's name it's not much different in sound than Beau/Bo, Bowen, Rowen/Rowan, Joe, Moe, and other names with a distinct O sound; even as a short form of vintage male names like Ambrose.
I'm not necessarily advocating for it because how deeply ingrained sexism is in this forsaken world, and how unkind people would be to young boys and men, but I can see the possibility if things were different.

This name probably should be labeled unisex because it was, while rare, used as a masculine name in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. While some might not agree, it can easily be seen on the popularity graphs.

Actually I wasn't interested in this name before. But now I think it's a simple, feminine and beautiful name. Also, I don't think it feels very old. I can imagine the name Rose being given to both children and adults and old people.

This is my middle name. I didn't like it at first, it seemed simple and common, but recently I've started to like it a lot more! Personally I love that it's the name of a flower, because I love plants. It's easy to pronounce and is short, which I like with middle names. I've actually not met anyone named this -- I've seen Rosa and Rosie, but never Rose. It feels familiar but not too overused. When using for a first name, I do prefer Rosa, though.

The name Rose, with its short and womanly appeal, has been increasingly used as a first name, alongside its more familiar versions, Rosie and Rosa. Its strong linguistic root in the Latin word 'rosa' establishes its distinct cultural and historical significance, embodying love and beauty. The symbol of the Rose evokes human emotions and captures the fragility of human existence. In our modern era, where life moves rapidly, and society disconnects, the name Rose serves as a poignant reminder of nature's constancy and human resilience. It rekindles our desire to reconnect with our surroundings and attain a more profound understanding of our beingness. Nevertheless, the name Rose's soaring popularity may diminish some of its mystical allure, with its exclusivity dwindling over time.
Expectantly, mothers-to-be that are fond of the name Rose but are put off by its burgeoning popularity will gravitate towards alternatives that are distinct, while still bearing resemblances to it. This drive for uniqueness and unconventionality reflects our shared human desire to differentiate ourselves from others. However, in these efforts to detach ourselves from the masses, we yet remain bound to the common pattern underlying our humankind. It is likely, therefore, that we shall witness a general upsurge in the use of alternatives such as Rosa, given their similarity to the popular classic, Rose.

Louise-Rose-Étiennette Gérard, known as Rosemonde Gérard (1871 – 1953) was a French poet and playwright. She was the wife of Edmond Rostand (1868–1918, author of Cyrano de Bergerac), and was a granddaughter of Étienne Maurice Gérard, who was a Marshal and a Prime Minister of France.

Rose is certainly a name that I’ve always liked. It sounds so gentle, all while having a secret punch! I like that. Also, the Rose flower is really pretty.

I love this name! I have heard people call it "old" or "boring", but many people seem to confuse timeless/classic with bland/boring! SO WRONG! I find it very hard to believe that anything that has a proper place in this world could fully go out of style- like flowers. Flower names like Lily have taken their rightful spot on the charts, with Violet not far behind. Why shouldn't Rose be on there too?!
In addition, it has the added benefit of being a very feminine name. Rose can be a delicate flower, or it can be someone who ROSE higher than the rest. Rose has the pluses of being a short name with a nickname (Rosie) or being a nickname for Rosalind, Rosemarie, Rosalie, etc. It can be a timeless name/nickname or a modern middle name. Rose has the benefit of going nicely with any name from Rosalie to the double barrel Lily-Rose.

I don't particularly like this name as a whole, I think it is cute as a nickname especially for Rosemary or Rosemarie. I know a Rose who is INCREDIBLY annoying so I associate the name with her (obviously not every Rose is like this so I would never judge someone by the name their parents gave them). I do think Rose does have a lot of class and elegance in it though. :)

So lovely and classic. I know TONS of people with Rose middle names and I still loved it enough to legally add it as a middle name to honor my great-grandmother Rose from my dad's side, and great-great-grandmother Rose from my mom's side. I adore flower names and almost all variations of the name Rose! So special as a first, middle or last name! Or even a pet's name! It's just perfect!

This is actually my SURNAME, and I'm a guy, but I love it. It's short and simple but strong and so classic. I also think it sounds quite romantic! And roses are actually NOT my favourite flower, but as far as flower names go, I think it's one of the best.

I'm not usually into flower names as much as other names, but I've always loved Rose. For one thing, roses come in many colors, there's variety. I don't normally judge off of people and their names, but I feel like I should with Rose. The Rose I know is strong and has been through a lot in her life. She still continues to make it better for other people. So, I get the impression of a cool, amazing, kind, and very strong person.

One of the most gorgeous names ever, whether used as a first or middle name. It literally pairs with almost every single girls name out there! I just don't really get why there is so much hate on these names.

This might be one of my favorite names ever. It checks off all the boxes for me... it's pretty, classic, great association with the flower, and so much more... and although I do consider it as an overused filler middle name, it's one of the better ones to me. It's not very common for a first name though, it ranked in the top 200 last year but it still feels underused. I would definitely use this someday... and you should consider it too!

I love Rose as a first name or middle name!♡ However, I don't like how it's labeled unisex. The name clearly has a feminine meaning. If a boy was named Rose, he will encounter incidents like teasing, bullying, and constantly being mistaken for a girl.

Rose is a lovely name, first or middle. I do agree it is used way too much for middle names but I don’t think it’s just some middle name filler, or the parents didn’t have time to come up with something more original. It’s a really pretty and nice name.

Roses are one of the most beautiful and admired flowers. Cleopatra is said to have attempted to seduce Antony with roses and had a Rose-petaled boudoir. She used fresh roses and slept with Rose petals in her bed. So there's history there. A whole lot of history, and that's just the beginning. Rose is gorgeous and symbolic and historical. It's romantic, yet strong. Powerful and beautiful.

My name is Rose and my sister's name is Aurora, (no we'rre not named after Princess Aurora, they were my great grandma's first and middle name) a lot of the people I meet think Rose is a very pretty name.

This name doesn't come from the Germanic elements. It comes from the Latin word "rosa" meaning "rose" (the flower). At least many other sites, including NameBerry and others state that. It also seems like a more logical explanation for the origin of this name.

My middle name is Rose and I think it’s just lovely and classic. My dad named me this because of his friend Robert. He died in a car accident before I was born and my dad wanted to honor him by giving me a middle name that sounded like his name. Apparently Roberta just wasn’t going to cut it.

I love seeing full names like Alexandra Rose, Amelia Rose, Julia Rose, Julie Rose, Juliana Rose, Aurora Rose, Amy Rose, Morgan Rose. I wish this was my surname! I would use it for a pink character who has that personality born in February or something, even my daughter’s first or middle name.

This is my absolute favorite name! It's not my middle name or anything, it just holds a special place in my heart. When I was little my sister wanted to give my brother and I "wolf names" (whatever that means) and I chose Rose and my brother chose Briar. My brother has abandoned his name, but I still love mine! My username on almost everything is "Rosebud" or something along those lines. I just think it's a beautiful, elegant, pure, angelic name! It's even a natural name on top of all that. Want a longer name? How about Rosanna or Rosabella? I just think this name is perfect in every way.

It is one of my favourite names. It is beautiful. It is lovely. It is feminine. It's classic and most of all, not a lot of people have this name any more, mostly other variations. All flowers especially roses are so beautiful that it's difficult not to consider this a name of beauty. It can also be considered a biblical name. I find this name utterly wonderful and one of a kind :)

So my name is Rose, and growing up I didn't like it because I didn't have a flouncy name like girls in my class (Eg: Arabella and Jasmina)
But as I got a little older I realised it is not only elegant but also really feminine. I think it is overused as a middle name and fresh as a first name. Saying that, it is still pretty as a middle name if you (weird, I know) have two middle names. (Eg: Catherine Ella Rose.)
Anyway, it's super pretty and kind of fun, and not old-ladyish at all. Many think it is dull, but whatever.

I absolutely hate this name! It is the ugliest name I have ever heard. It is so tacky and boring. Also I think it is okayish for a kid (but still pretty ugly), but for an adult... Bleeeeeeh. I would hate being an adult named Rose! It would be so boring and childish! I feel so very sorry for anyone who is named Rose, has a close friend named Rose, or even has to hear this awful name on a daily basis.

The name lost its life for me when I found out that everybody and their sister, cousin, and friend have this name as a middle name. I just don't like it anymore simply because it is overused.

Rose is my favorite flower name. It's delicate, but not overly delicate. The initial "R" gives the name a touch of strength. The nickname "Rosie" is lovely. Why the hell do people just put Rose as the middle name? Rose as a first name is classic and refreshing at the same time.

I absolutely love the name Rose. I'd like to name a daughter Rose. I think Rose is so beautiful on its own. It annoys me how often Rose is tacked behind a first name because it's so common that way which kind of makes it less pretty. One of my best friends is named Rosie (not Rose, just Rosie) and roses are my favorite flowers. I just think it's so pretty!

My name is Mikayla-Rose so it's kinda my first name. In my family we have this tradition that every 11 years a girl's middle name or first is Rose. So my mum's middle name is Rose and my aunties and cousin etc...

Rose is nice but I like the longer names with Rose in it. So these are the ones I know:
Rosalinda
Rosangela
Rosella
Rosalie
Roselyn
Rosetta
Roseanne
So yeah, it's a nice name but I like the longer versions.

I think it's beautiful, but it's so boring and bland as both a middle and first name I'm tired of hearing it. Rosaline, Rosalie, Rosamund, Rosalind, Rosalba, etc would be a much better, more original alternative to just plain Rose, both as a first and middle name. To my surprise, I met a guy who went by Rose once. It was his last name, but he preferred it to his first name. And I liked it; I thought it sounded surprisingly great on a male. He'd probably get teased endlessly, but as a nickname for something like Rosario or Rosaire I still like it.

This name is way too common as a middle name. It's basically the modern Marie, Ann, or Lynn. If I ever meet someone 17 or younger, it's pretty safe to guess that their middle name is either Rose, Elizabeth, or Grace. I think it works well as a first name or paired with a second middle name, but on its own and in the middle, it's simply a bland filler name that can essentially work with any first name.

My name actually is Rose, I think it is a hood name to have. Anyone who knows me or even anyone I just met, they always say that is such a beautiful name to have. I have also never known a single person yet in my life with the first name Rose. For a first name it's unique because it's uncommon. Having a unique and different name is just amazing and makes you feel special because you're not like every other person in the world who had the same name as you. You have a special name which no one else has, no one can ever mix you up and it's an easy name to say and to remember. I love my name and I say anyone who doesn't know what to name your baby girl and you want a name that is unique and uncommon, pick Rose.
My first name is Rose and middle is Margaret such a cool name to have. Its an older name but I love my name and I'm only 17 yrs old.

My name is Rose. I've always loved it. It's so unique as a first name I've only meet a few people with the same first name. Personally I do feel that it is over used as a middle name because you can find probably half a million people with the middle name, but so few with it as a first name. I think it should definitely make a comeback as a first name because it represents something beautiful and sweet. Plus I love the flowers, oddly though, they're not my favorite.

I love this name. Roses are my absolute FAVOURITE flowers! :D It's girly, sweet and pretty at the same time. ^^ I would use it as a first name if I had a daughter in the future because it's a totally overused middle name. I don't care if it seems old-fashioned. At least Rose isn't trendy sounding like Ariana, Bailey, Mackenzie etc.

I named one of my triplets Rose back in 2010. I absolutely adore this name, and I like that it's not very common for girls her age. She definitely stands out from the crowd of Emma's, Isabella's, and Sophia's. I do not think this name is 'old ladyish' at all, and if you think it sounds too grown up, you can always call her Rosie, which is very cute :-) I'm a big fan of vintage names that are in need of revival, and everyone who meets my daughter loves her name. It's simple but so elegant and timeless, and that's what I love about it. It doesn't have to be a frilly, four syllable name to be girly and romantic. Rose has a sort of humble beauty to it, in my opinion. Though I agree that it is well beyond overused as a middle name. I've had too many mothers tell me that Rose is their daughter's middle name. I think it's time for overused middle names like Rose, Marie, and Anne to make a comeback as first names, they're all absolutely beautiful and so unfortunately underused at the moment!

I love this name! It's short but beautiful, classy, elegant, and timeless all at once. Rosie is cute, but I prefer Rose. It's sad how uncommon this name has gotten, as it was so popular once, and it seems like a lot of people like it. As a middle name it's a little overused, but I think it would be adorable as a first name on a little girl and would age very well. This is one of my favorite names, and I like a lot of similar sounding names like Rosalie, Roslyn, and Rosemarie, too, which you could use as full names if you feel Rose is too short. All of them are beautiful =)

This is my name, and I feel very lucky to have it. It is a very romantic and beautiful name that not many have for their first name, though it is overused for a middle. I am called Rosie by family and friends.

I love roses too, especially red ones.

This is my middle name, and I hate it. I turned out to be the rare sort of person who is disgusted by flowers completely and hates them with a passion, and honestly I'd rather not have any kind of middle name at all than be named for a flower, so you really need to think things through before naming a little girl after an object such as a plant or gemstone, even if it's regarded as an object of beauty. What if she turns out to hate flowers, like me? What if she's allergic to roses? Even if it sounds unlikely, it can happen. Even if you doubt it would happen, I'd advise you to really think things through anyway, even if you think that your daughter won't mind being named after a flower, or that she will like them. It seemed unlikely that I would mind being named after a flowering plant when my mother picked this name for me. But that's just what happened. I understand that parents risk choosing a name that their child will come to hate every time they give a name to their newborn baby, but my advice is to simply really, really think things through before naming a baby after a physical object, even if it's an object that people usually find lovely.

You don't know. So if you really dislike your name that much, then introduce yourself as something different. (I did this for a while, as I was ashamed for being named Galadriel, after the elf in Lord of the Rings.) And besides, why would you dislike such a beautiful and classy name? ^.^

As someone who's had this name for 16 years, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone considering it for their daughter. What if they grow up to hate their floral namesake, as I do? I hate that there are no decent nickname options aside from "Rosie", which is likely to be outgrown by a certain age.

I admittedly narcissistically looked up my own first name. I really do like it a lot. I do occasionally get the "Oh! Your name's Rose? My middle name's Rose!" That does not bother me. My impression of it really is of an old Jewish woman, but that's because I was named after my great grandmother. Nobody likes their name as a child, and for me, I thought it was too feminine to suit me. It is a very feminine name, with little to no gender ambiguity. That being said, it's stopped bothering me. I think the name induces respect and implies intelligence. The fact that it is monosyllabic makes it efficient to say and write. The usual nicknames lengthen it, which I find counterintuitive and discourage the use of. The most common adjective used to describe it is "beautiful," which does not suit me, but I think the name does suit me in its own way. The age of the name doesn't make me feel stuffy, but worldly instead.

This is my first name, and I have to say I find it incredibly awful. First of all, I believe that no matter how pretty the flower, the name of a plant does NOT belong on a person. It also does not suit my personality, because I'm rather wild and loud and it comes across as extremely dainty.
I also absolutely hate the nickname Rosie, because it's childish.

"Rose" is (as overrated as it may be) a sweet name, nothing more, nothing less. I must admit that I associate it with women who have lived their lives (meaning: geriatric). It is not an incredibly professional firstname, either. "Rose" is leaps and bounds nicer than "Lily" (I beg of you not to name your daughters that trendy/fad combination).
"Rosie" is a decently tolerable diminutive.

Like Claire, this name is really pretty and sweet in its simplicity, and who doesn't like roses? It's also very refreshing to see it used as a first name, since, for the last decade or so, it's been majorly overused as a middle name, the Marie and Anne of its generation.
I'm happily surprised that this name hasn't surged in popularity in recent years as the girls who saw that hideous Titanic movie over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again have grown up and started having kids of their own. Madison didn't get so hideously popular as a girl's name till a generation after 'Splash!,' and Jennifer stayed so popular well into the Eighties in part because the younger girls who had seen 'Love Story' apparently remembered that movie and wanted to use the name all of those years.

Rose is such a beautiful name! It gives an impression of sweetness but strength, like a rosebush has tough branches and thorns to protect itself. It's hard to pair with a middle name, but breaking up popular variations can have success, i.e. Rosemary, Roseanne, and Rosalyn become Rose Mary, Rose Anne, and Rose Lynne.

I love my name now (my name is Rose), but I used to hate it. The one thing I used to hate is when people would buzz the s (as in pronouncing it Ro-zh, aaah!). Since my dad has the same name as just about everyone in his generation and nobody can pronounce my mom's name right, they wanted to name me something that everyone could pronounce but not everyone would have. I haven't found many people with my name as a first name which is awesome (I have 6 friends named different variants of Erin and it's horribly confusing). People always come up to me and tell me they love my name, which is also awesome. I was so excited it might have been partially derived from German as well - I love the German language!

The name has to either be a middle-name or it has to be a name combo to get by, otherwise, just Rose by itself is prententious.

A very pretty feminine name. It makes a great middle name too. I obviously think so because I chose this as my Catholic Confirmation Name, so if included with my name, makes it sound more feminine, if it wasn't already. The rest of my names are complex and unusual, so it works well.

My middle name is Rose, and I used to think it was very harsh. Some girls had Lynn as a middle name, which I thought was simple and could be paired with anything. Others had Marie, which I thought was very pretty but also very common. Still others had Jane, which to this day I think is gorgeous. And I had a harsh one-syllable middle name: Rose. It's a family name.
Now that I'm a little older (16), I have grown to appreciate my middle name, as well as the flower behind it. I think that is beautiful.

Roses are nice, and the name isn't exactly ugly, but it sounds quite plain and dull on its own, and it is way too common as a middle name. The name also reminds me of Rose McGowan, who was wacky enough to almost marry Marilyn Manson. Not a good association. However, the name does make me think of attractive women with reddish-brown, long hair, dewy, green eyes, full, red lips, pale skin, and an hourglass figure. This isn't much of a blonde name to me.

I love Rose as a first name, as it can be quite sweet and romantic. As a middle name though, all the originality is drained away. I feel as though half the girls in America have either Anne, Rose, Grace or Marie as a middle name. To me the middle name Rose seems like the parents gave no thought at all to it and just tacked it on because they felt she needed a middle name but couldn't be bothered to think of anything interesting.
But as a first name it is gorgeous and refreshing. I'd much rather meet a girl with the first name Rose then yet another girl who is _____ Rose.

I think it's pretty, and it would've been my name if I had red hair (thankfully not -- the name hardly suits me), but I think that this best belongs to the flower. It just doesn't sound all that appealing to me.

It's a beautiful name. Rose could be nickname for Rosanna, Rossana or Roseann.

I think this is a lovely name. I wouldn't name my child it, unless it was for a middle name, though.

Rose is my middle name and many of my peers think that it is better than my first name. I don't think that. My teacher says that she wants Rose as the middle name of her first girl. It does roll off the tounge. It is also the name of Betty White's character on the old TV show "The Golden Girls".

This is my middle name, and is thoroughly overused as one, but goes well with just about any name. I don't think I've ever been the only one in my class who has this middle name! I think it sounds especially sweet with Emma or Ella (or my name, Lauren!)

Numerous etymological works point out the German use of Rose as a form of Mary. In fact, that is often given as the origin. Also, the Catholic Church seems to accept it as a thusly valid "Christian name" for this reason.
