Rosetta
A girls’ name of Latin origin, meaning little rose; a form of Rosa.
Rosetta by the numbers
In 2025, 7 babies in England and Wales were named Rosetta. In the US, 46 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
It is used at about the same rate on both sides of the Atlantic.
Its American peak was 578 babies in 1948, so it is a 1940s name that has since fallen a long way.
