I might have loved this name if it wasn't for the fact that I have a friend named Rosemary, and for her personality it is so sickeningly sweet on her. She's blond and freckly and always has her head in the clouds, and I know her mom was going for the Little House on the Prairie feel (think of a Luna Lovegood type personality). Most people call her Rosie these days. I've always called her Rose. Once again, on her, it seems too sickeningly sweet to me. I might like it better on the right person though. I've heard of a hispanic girl by this name that I thought was lovely on. But I prefer the Hispanic Rosario. I've never seen Mary as a natural nn for Rosemary. I prefer Rose. I adore the nn Romy though, which has been long forgotten.
