We already have a boy name picked! I like Rosie and DH likes Penelope. Siblings are Oliver and Eloise.

I love Rose. It's such a lovely name, and yet so rarely used for a first name. I love Rosie with Eloise and Oliver.

Penelope goes so much better with your sibset. Rose seems sweet but boring up against Eloise. Why not Penelope Rose and then see what nn comes from that?

thank you! Rosie is the name I really love (more so than Rose) but it seems more like a nn than a "real" name

I voted Rose Madeline because I just love the nn Rosie, but agree that Penelope Rose would be my favorite combination

Penelope is very popular as of late... but it does pair nicely with Rose, and your sib set.
Personally I like Rose or Rosemary much more.
Rosemary Estelle is lovely. I also like Rosemary Joy.
