History & Origin
Rosezella is built from Rose, the Latin-rooted flower name, elaborated with the -zella ending common in the early-twentieth-century American South. It carries the rose's traditional associations with beauty and love.
Rosezella was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak around 1921, and it disappeared from records by the early 1970s. A girl named Rosezella then would be from the great-grandparent generation now.
