From Wikipedia
In Pythagorean numerology, every letter has a value from 1 to 9. Adding the letters of Rose yields these three numbers — a playful read on the name's character.
Rose is up 40% across the decade despite having peaked in 1917 at 9,783 births and ranked 14 as far back as 1911. That combination — deep history, genuine current growth — is unusual, and Rose manages it partly because it never fully disappeared: 500,276 births since 1880, the third-largest total here, accumulated steadily rather than in a burst. The current figures are 2,376 births and rank 115. Every listed bearer holds it second rather than first: Emilia Clarke, born 1986, Lily Allen, Emma Roberts, Sienna Miller, Claudia Cardinale. That is not an accident of the data. Rose is overwhelmingly used as a middle name in practice, so its first-name count understates its real presence by a wide margin.
