I love the name [name_f]Rose[/name_f] it’s beautiful, been my favourite name for years & it’s also a family name for me and my partner. But the year of 2019 everyone decided to use [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. My best friend called her daughter [name_u]Peyton[/name_u]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f] and always calls her [name_u]Peyton[/name_u]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f]. My other best friend’s sister called her daughter [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and finally my partner brother called his daughter [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (rose being the middle name) that’s a lot of [name_f]Rose[/name_f]’s!! Can I still use [name_f]Rose[/name_f]? [name_u]Ever[/name_u] since taking her off my list I’ve been struggling because I always wanted a [name_f]Rose[/name_f] but is there to many in my life now to use it? Your honest thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
If you really love the name I would use it. Most of your friends used the name for middle names. Depends if you want a more unique name or not. If you love it, I would use it!
If it were one person, it might stick out a bit more, but at this point it seems like there are so many that no one would bat an eyelash. Plus, no one else you mentioned is [name_m]Just[/name_m] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. You could also use [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] or [name_f]Primrose[/name_f], something like that, to get to [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. Either way, I say use it.
Yes you can still use it. And I think you should! The only one among your acquaintances who actually has used [name_f]Rose[/name_f] on its own as the first name is your friend’s sister. That is not at all a close enough friend or relation to stop you using it!
The fact that [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is a middle name for a niece is neither here nor there because, frankly every second girl has [name_f]Rose[/name_f] in the middle these days and middles are so rarely used in everyday contexts. I see your friend’s daughter [name_u]Peyton[/name_u]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f] as a disctinctively different name.
I don’t think [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is just now gaining popularity, every other person I know is ____ [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. A ton of them go by [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. [name_m]Even[/name_m] I was almost a [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. It is a very common middle name but if it’s what you love you shouldn’t let that deter you.
