I have also heard the name Rosabelle.What do you think of Rosabella or Rosabelle? I actually like them both (I think I like Rose in all it's variations). Or is it too cutesy?Which is your favourite Rose variant (and which have I missed?)

My grandmother's original name was Rosabella. She later changed it to Rosa Bella (Bella as the MN), and went by Rose. I plan on using Rosabel to honor her, as I find Rosabella too frilly.

I HATE the name Rosabella, but only because its the name of the street I live on and everybody looks at you funny when you say you live on Rosabella Lane. I find it a bit too frilly, but I think I would like Rosabelle were it spelt Rosabel.I like Rose best on its own, but I do like Rosalie and Rosaline (which you missed) if its pronounced (rahz-uh-LIEN)

I find it really cutesy. The only Ros- names I like are Rosemary, Rosalyn, Rosalind and Rosalie. I hate Rose, it's boring and dated, I don't see why it's so popular on the boards.

You missed Rosaline which is by far my favorite Rose-name (together with Rose). I like it pronounced ROZ-a-line, not ROZ-a-leen.Rosabelle, Rosabella and Rosalind are nice. I also like Rosemary and Rosalie. Rosemarie and Rosamund make good middle names. Rosa is the German word for "pink" so it seems weird. I don't like Rosette and Rosetta.

I love Solomon Snow! xDYeah, that was my favourite book series a few years back. My friends and I were obsessed with it. Buuuut anyway...I love the name Rosabella! I love Rose and all its variations, including its translations like Sophannagh , but Rosalie, Rosabella and Rosemarie are my utter favourites! They're not cutesy, they're beautiful - and a nice relief from the "trendies" like Madison and Payton!

Rosabella sounds somewhat funny to me. Of the Rose names, I like Rosa, Rosalind and Rosalyn.
