Any opinions on the name "Rosel"? (for a girl, but it sounds vaguely unisex)

mmhh looks like Rose with an extra 'l' to me, but I don't mind the sound!

I like the sound, but think it looks incomplete.

Hm, it could be worse. but I don't particularly hate it or like it. sounds like someone with a speech impairment trying to say Rose.

Rose-il? Ro-zelle? Roselle would be an okay name.

I know someone named Roselle. I prefer this spelling.

I don't like it. I like Rosalie, though.

Sounds nice.

Reyzl (Ray-zel) is a traditional Yiddish name for a girl meaning rose. It reminds me of Rosel.

It's Rozzel, not Rossel, right?

Yes, pronounced ROSE-l, same cadence as the name Laurel.

I've just been saying it over and over trying to decide what my final opinion is! I think it's cute and unique, but I don't want it to be too out there.
