Elsie-Rose

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Elsie-Rose: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2025.

Elsie-Rose blends two well-loved names with distinct roots. Elsie, a Scottish diminutive of Elizabeth, carries the Hebrew meaning “God is my oath” and is famously associated with Dr Elsie Inglis, a pioneering Scottish doctor who founded the Scottish Women’s Hospitals during World War I. Rose, from the Latin rosa, became a classic floral favourite; actress Rose Leslie, born in Aberdeen, brought it modern prominence through her role in *Outlander*. Place connections include Edinburgh’s Elsie Inglis Memorial Hospital and the historic Rose Street in the city’s New Town. The hyphenated form reflects a contemporary Scottish naming trend, combining tradition with a lyrical double-barrelled style that feels both timeless and fresh.
