I say [name_f]ROSA[/name_f]-LEEN, but I am pry not the most reliable source. I pronounce [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] with the -[name_f]LINE[/name_f] ending, [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Eponine[/name_f], [name_f]Delphine[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphine[/name_f] with the -LEEN ending, and [name_m]Peregrine[/name_m], [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f], and [name_f]Jessamine[/name_f] with the -YNN ending. Lol, I am pretty varied in what I think sounds right concerning the -[l]ine ending names.

It shouldn’t be a problem. However you introduce her vocally will make the biggest impact on how people pronounce her name, I think.

I pronounce it with the [name_f]LINE[/name_f] ending, just like I do (and much prefer) with; [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], [name_f]Madeline[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], [name_f]Coraline[/name_f], [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], …

It is definitely a personal preference. Your close family and friends, teachers, others in your and her circles would learn the pronunciation you want quickly.

I pronounce it roz-uh-line. The only -line name I pronounce like -lynn is [name_f]Madeline[/name_f], but I knew a girl who pronounced it that way so it’s just natural for me.

I also pronounce it roz-a-line. That’s how classical theatre taught me to do it.

I say it “[name_f]Roz[/name_f]-ah-line” because of its use in [name_m]Romeo[/name_m] and [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], but when I first saw it written down in that play (when I was 13), I said it “[name_f]Rosa[/name_f]-leen”.

I say [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]-LEEN, but I would think most people would only need to be corrected once, so I don’t see pronunciation as a big deal

I say “[name_f]ROZ[/name_f]-uh-leen” - so with the ending you were going for, but possibly a different first syllable?

Anyway, it’s an unusual name so I agree that the way you pronounce it will probably be the one that will stick.

I speak fluent [name_m]French[/name_m] and in [name_m]French[/name_m] [name_f]Canada[/name_f] it will pronounced [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]-lynn.

I would probably say [name_f]ROSE[/name_f]-uh-line. I agree with @emmamay about vocal introduction though. [name_m]Just[/name_m] a suggestion: maybe the spelling Roseline would open it up to the -leen pronunciation?

I say it [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]-leen

I say ‘rosa-leen’ and didn’t even realise that it could be pronounced differently.
