[Opinions] Re: Rose vs Lily?
As a fn I much prefer Rose. Lily is beautiful, but everyone and his dog is using it right now. Rose is being used too, but usually in the mn position. So as a fn Rose is much fresher.

AgreeIn general, when I'm debating between two names that are equally nice (etc), I go for the less common one. Lily will be one of several Lilys in her class, and when this generation becomes old Lily will become "dated" like Linda or Barbara or Betty or Doris. Rose will be alone, and won't be as tied to her time period.

DittoWe used to have dog named Lily, so when I hear/see that name, all I can think about is a curly-white-haired dog that jumps really high and everyone says has a spring up her butt, LOL.Anyways, I agree, Rose makes a very pretty FN
