or [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] wdyt?

3

I agree with the previous post, [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f]!

4

Yeah, for that pronunciation, I’d say [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] is your best bet.

5

I didn’t vote because I agree with everyone else.

6

I’d definitely use [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f].

7

Other. [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f].

[name_f]Roselyn[/name_f] is too similar to [name_f]Rose[/name_f]-lyn to me.

It really depends on how you want to pronounce it to me. All of those have different pronunciations.

[name_f]Roselyn[/name_f]/Roselynn- I pronounce that “[name_f]Rose[/name_f]-lynn”
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]- I pronounce that “[name_f]Ros[/name_f]-a-lind”
[name_f]Rosalyn[/name_f]- I pronounce like “[name_f]Ros[/name_f]-uh-lin” or the spanish pronunciation “[name_f]Rose[/name_f]-uh-leen”
[name_f]Rozlyn[/name_f]/[name_f]Rozlynn[/name_f]- I pronounce like “[name_f]Roz[/name_f]-lynn”

I have a feeling though you’re probably wanting “[name_f]Ros[/name_f]-lyn” so I would go with [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f]/[name_f]Roslynn[/name_f].

[name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] is a clear spelling for that name.

[name_f]Susan[/name_f]

10

[name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] is the best option, [name_f]IMO[/name_f].

11

[name_f]Roslin[/name_f], I think, though it sounds and looks weird to me. I keep wanting the ‘a’ in the middle like [name_f]Rosalin[/name_f] but then I think [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] would be even better, lol.

12

I’d say [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f], [name_f]Roslynn[/name_f], or [name_f]Roslin[/name_f].
[name_f]Rozlyn[/name_f] or [name_f]Rozlynn[/name_f] seems made up to me.
Any with the beginning of [name_f]Rose[/name_f]- or [name_f]Rosa[/name_f]- I immediately say it as [name_f]Rose[/name_f]/[name_f]Rose[/name_f]-uh not [name_f]Roz[/name_f] or [name_f]Roz[/name_f]-uh.

13

[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] is my favorite. So beautiful!

But for the pronunciation you’re going for, I would go with [name_f]Rosalyn[/name_f] and just pronounce the a.

14

I would go for [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f].

15

I know a guy whose middle name is Rhoslyn because it was his mother’s maiden name. It has the pronunciation you want. I don’t think any of the poll options do, to be honest.

16

[name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] is the most familiar one to me with that pronunciation.

But I do think that [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] is the prettiest. (And with the option of nn [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] !)

17

I didn’t vote. [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] is definitely the only spelling I’d go for if I wanted [name_f]ROZ[/name_f]-[name_u]LYNN[/name_u] as the pronunciation.

18

[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] or [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f]

19

[name_f]Rosaline[/name_f] (but I like [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] better)

[name_f]Roslyn[/name_f] or [name_f]Roslin[/name_f] would be the choices for getting the 2-syllable pronunciation “[name_f]Roz[/name_f]-lynn”. A few of your poll choices do not line up with this at all. [name_f]Roselyn[/name_f] and Roselynn will get you the first syllable pronounced like “[name_f]Rose[/name_f]” and not “[name_f]Roz[/name_f]” (rhymes with gauze—this is what you want, right?). [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosalyn[/name_f] are both three syllables and not two like you asked for—though I think [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f] is a great choice. And I prefer an “s” to a “z” in the spelling of [name_f]Roslyn[/name_f].
