ORIGIN & HISTORY

About the name

As the Latinate form of Rosaline (a medieval variant of Rosalind), Rosalina inherits the Old German elements hros ("horse") and lind ("soft, flexible, tender"); medieval usage additionally associated the spelling with the Latin phrase rosa linda, "beautiful rose." No source documents an independently coined meaning for the Rosalina spelling itself.
