I definitely prefer [name_u]Rose[/name_u] to [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] with [name_f]Nora[/name_f] - [name_f]Nora[/name_f] feels quite simple and cosy to me, so I do think [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] is a bit frilly in comparison. I think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Rose[/name_u] are sweet together, my only concern is that the strong ‘r’ sound in both names makes it slightly difficult to say? A few other sister sets I like with each name, feel free to take or leave them…
[name_u]Rose[/name_u] & [name_f]Alice[/name_f] (that’s my favourite name to go with Rose), [name_u]Rose[/name_u] & [name_f]Mabel[/name_f], [name_u]Rose[/name_u] & [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_u]Rose[/name_u] & [name_f]Gwen[/name_f], [name_u]Rose[/name_u] & [name_u]Esmé[/name_u]
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Hazel[/name_u], [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_f]Betsy[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_f]Molly[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Josie[/name_u]
Overall I do think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Rose[/name_u] works as a sister set, it’s just a bit tricky on the tongue. But their both lovely names with a similar sweet country vibe
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] + [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] sound pretty together very classic and feminine. However I would assume that [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is a nickname. I think stylistically [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] & [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] or [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] & [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] would be a better fit.
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] + [name_u]Rose[/name_u] are gorgeous cohesive pairing. [name_u]Rose[/name_u] is a very classic romantic name one of favourites! I think [name_u]Rose[/name_u] makes the most sense they are both short, timeless choices and very pretty together with the shared ‘o’ sound. I do not think the names run into each other they sound gorgeous. I would be more inclined to go with [name_f]Nora[/name_f] & [name_u]Rose[/name_u].
Agree! Would lengthen Nora to say Lenore/Leonora etc to pair with Rosalie, or keep the tailored and stylish Nora & Rose (which is a little R heavy to say but not a problem from the POVs of the children/people with the names, rarely saying their sibling’s name in conjunction with their own.)
Edit:after swung on this and think maybe better to have Nora & Rosalie and Rose & Lenora/Lenore/Leonor. More interesting and takes away the “nose” possibility. I would personally go for Rose & Leonor nn Nora because I’m not a big Rosalie fan and think Rosalie would likely only get Rosie and only very occasionally Rose, while Rose can get the beautiful Rose or Rosie.
I think either set works, but I’d have to say them as [name_u]Rose[/name_u] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] because I trip over the R sounds too much otherwise!
I personally prefer [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f]! I like that they both have a slight vintage, nature-y/outdoorsy, warm vibe, but hold their own too
I think [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] sound great together If I like the short and long form of a name, I prefer to name the child the longer form so I can still use both! [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] feel similar to me, so I don’t find [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] more frilly. And you can still call [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] by [name_u]Rose[/name_u] if you do that
I do think either option is great, and it is nice that [name_u]Rose[/name_u] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] are both just 4 letters though!
i prefer rosalie with nora !! nora feels so sweet and cosy, and rose feels quite a bit more buttoned-up and sleek and proper with her. rosalie is a little longer and frillier, yes, but she is also a little softer and a little cosier !! i think both/either would work well as a sister set, but my vote goes for rosalie <3
I think [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] are beautiful together.
[name_f]My[/name_f] preference is to always give long names , and the kids can use nicknames interchangeably. I love how [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] has so many nickname potentials ( [name_f]Rosie[/name_f], [name_u]Ali[/name_u], [name_f]Sally[/name_f], [name_f]Rosa[/name_f] , [name_u]Lee[/name_u] , [name_f]Ros[/name_f] etc.)
