Rosey

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Rosey: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2022.

Rosey, a charming and affectionate diminutive of Rose, finds its roots in the Latin *rosa*, the fragrant flower that has long symbolised love and beauty. While the name has no shortage of famous bearers—the American actress Rosey Grier, a former professional American football player, brought a unique and powerful presence to the name—it is perhaps most memorably associated with the fictional Rosey, the beloved robot maid from the classic cartoon *The Jetsons*. Though no major places bear the name directly, the elegant rose itself has inspired countless places, from the Rosa Parks Institute to the town of Rose in Scotland. A sweet and vintage choice, Rosey shares its sunny, affectionate vibe with other floral diminutives like Rosie and Rosy, but with a distinctly playful, almost retro feel.
