I'd say ROZ-a-lin with a short "o". For me RAWZ- sounds very different to ROZ-, the former sounds very American. The difference in sound is like that bewteen hawk and hockey. I'm not sure if that explanation works well, I'm no linguist. I don't like the sound of ROSE-a-lin at all.

I prefer Rosaline pronounced ROZ-a-line (not leen) to Rosalyn. Both are nice though.
