Rosina is such a glamorous, classy and darling name. I think Rosina Margurite or Rosina Blanca would be good combos.

The name Rosina was really quite popular among the English in the Victorian times I’m a genealogist and I can’t tell you how many large Victorian families had a Rosina among their ranks. It’s strange. I suppose like Selina the name Rosina is almost unheard of today except among the Italian community.

Rosina is a beautiful name per se, but in my opinion it sounds and looks too much like the Finnish word "rusina", which means raisin. Still, if you never knew about the Finnish word then sure, Rosina is a pretty, sophisticated and unusual name!

No one has mentioned the 'Barber of Seville' to me when they see it, but that was/is a very old production.
The modernized version of it is Sweeney Todd; the demon barber of Fleet Street.
This is a musical and has been produced as a film with Johnny Depp and Helen Bonham-Carter as main characters- extremely good film! I recommend it!
My school is even putting a show of it on at the moment!

My name is Rosina but my friends call me many other names. It could be because it can be a mouthful if you say it a lot of times. I like my name because it is unusual and interesting.

It's my middle name too - also a tradition in my family for the eldest daughter! My great grandmother was Clara Rosina but used Rosina (shortened to Rose) as her given name. A beautiful name I think.

I do have a colleague at work whose first name is Rosina and she was quite impressed that I pronounced it correctly!
I think the name is definitely feminine.

A British friend of mine is named Rosina, and she really hates it. Apparently people usually mispronounce Rosina so she always introduces herself simply as "Rosie" to people. She feels her parents tried too hard to be fancy when picking her name.

Rosina sounds close to the Danish word for a Raisin = Rosin.
I kinda like it, though, for that reason. It's cute!
