History & Origin

Rozanne reworks Roseanne, marrying Latin rosa, 'rose,' to Anne, from Hebrew for 'grace.' It surfaced as an American given name in the early twentieth century and touched its modest high near 1943, worn by only dozens of girls a year.

Someone named Rozanne at its wartime peak is now in her early eighties, a solid grandmother-era name. It faded well before the Roseanne sitcom era and has not returned, reading today as a genteel mid-century relic.

Did you know? Rozanne is one of a cluster of 1940s z-spellings — alongside Rozella and Rozetta — where families swapped a softer s for a crisper z to freshen an inherited name.
