Rozelle is a floral name that appeared in U.S. records around 1906, reaching its peak popularity in 1908. Since then, usage has been extremely low and stable, with an estimated 1 in 321,453 girls receiving the name in 2025. The name's rarity and old-fashioned charm make it a distinctive choice.

Rozelle is a diminutive or elaborated form of Rose, which comes from the Latin rosa, meaning "rose" flower. It follows a pattern of feminine names ending in -elle, popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The name saw modest use in the United States, peaking around 1908.
