Rosemary

Like, dislike??  We really want to name the next baby after family and I am starting to lean toward Rosemary (my grandma) as my favorite.  Other options are Teresa (my MIL, would definitely call her Tessa which I like, Teresa isnt my favorite) or Laura (my mom).   DS is Ames (pronounced aims) after DH grandfather.  Which name do you think goes well with Ames, or we are open to using these names as a MN if you have a first name suggestion.  Thanks!

Love it, actually! 

Strongly prefer it over Teresa or Laura, although those names are fine choices as well.

I really like Rosemary. I love Teresa (Tessa) and have it on my list so that would be my top pick for you. Teresa Rosemarie is pretty.

Laura is fine, but a little dated for me, I'd probably keep it in the MN spot. I don't love the flow of Rosemary Laura, but that could work too.

I love Rosemary, Tessa and Laura, although not a fan of Teresa.  I feel like Tessa or Laura go a little bit better with Ames, but they are all nice.

I like it.  You could use Rosemary or a variation like Rose Mary or Rose Marie

That was my first thought too, but I don't really know how popular that book and movie is anymore, so maybe it doesn't matter too much :)

I really like it.  Rosemary was my great-aunt's name.

Would you consider Rosemarie as a little twist? I think it pairs nicely with Ames (which is an awesome name, btw!) and it rolls of the tongue in such a lovely way.
