Rosalie
- Can be shortened in many ways and who doesn't love roses?
- I like this name because it is so feminine, but also very versatile. It is a combination of Rose and Natalie, and I love the old movie and song of the same name. There are many nickname possibilities, and the name sounds fine for every age. (NOTE: I can't imagine a 90 year old woman named Sailor)
Rosalie is a French and German form of the name Rosalia. Rosalia is Latin, derived from rosa meaning "rose flower." Rosalia was the name of a 12th century Italian saint who is the patron of Palermo, Italy. Rosalia is also the Latin name for the ancient Greek wine drinking festival Anthesteria.
