Her husbands' and daughters' names stand out more...
Æthelred & Cnut
Godgifu & Gunhilda

It's cool in a way to see those next Emma, Alfred, and Edward. Her parents picked well if they were going for an enduring name.

Meh. It’s not amazingly striking or spectacular, just Emma. A decently nice name. Rose doesn’t make it any better.

Emma is a classic, nice name, hence why it is so common.

I prefer Emmeline, myself, but never bothered or bowled over by Emma.

It's also the name of approximately a billion other people, including me.

It's fine? I don't really see the fuss. I think the double Ms are cool.

Right I was expecting some super obscure medieval name… Aren’t Jane Austen’s Emma or even Madame Bovary better known namesakes anyway?

I find Emma a snore fest in the front. It's OK in the middle position.

Rose Emma is a thousand times more interesting than Emma Rose. I know 6 babies names Emma Rose and countless older women named Emma Grace, Emma Louise or Emma Elizabeth.
