As my mn is Lynn as well I really like the 2 Ns. It does look better with one but I like the two because it's more significant to you and your family.
This is why I'm so torn! I love the two, but I'm scared she'd get annoyed writing a longer name (I realize it's only one letter but I still worry). So of course I came to TB for help

This exactly, use the two n's because of the significance.

I get the significance of the double n, but it just does not look like it is spelled correctly to me. I looked on www.behindthename.com and Rosalynn is not recognized as a variant. I think she will be in a for a lifetime of misspelling.
The name already has the word "Lyn" in it, I think that is enough to honor all the Lynn's in your family. If you really want the full Lynn I'd say do a double first name: Rosa Lynn (but then you'd be pronouncing it differently than Rosalyn, fyi). My mother's name is Lynn, and so is a cousin's and I thought about using names with Lyn in it and adding the extra n too, like Caitlynn but then I realized it doesn't make a difference when it's said and that's already more honoring tha most people get!

I voted for two n's. My middle name is Lynn and my oldest daughters is too
It's different and I like
I agree!
