What is the meaning of the name Rose ?

The baby name Rose is a Female name , 1 syllables long and is pronounced /roʊz/.

Rose is Latin in Origin.

Rose stems from Latin rosa, carried into Middle English through Old French, denoting the fragrant flower. Its symbolism - love, beauty, and the secrecy of “sub rosa” - helped the name thrive in medieval England, aided by French influence and saints’ cults, notably St. Rose of Lima. It enjoyed renewed favor among 17th‑century Puritans and surged again in the Victorian floral vogue; today it remains a timeless staple, especially as a middle name, and as an emblem evokes England’s Tudor Rose and Marian “Rosa Mystica.”

Variants and cognates include Rosa (Spanish, Italian, Scandinavian), Róża (Polish), Roza (Slavic languages), Ruža (South Slavic), and the Irish pet form Róisín/Rosaleen (“little rose”). Related forms span Rosalie, Rosalia, Rosetta, Rosina, Rosita, and Primrose; associated names include Rhoda and Rosalind. Diminutives and nicknames: Rosie, Rosy, Ro, and Roe.
