Rosemond is a rare yet elegant French female given name meaning "dew" or "hoar frost," derived from the word "rosée." It was coined by François de Malherbe in his poem "Les Stances à la belle Rosemonde," and has been associated with beauty, grace, and intelligence since its popularization during the Renaissance. Throughout history, notable figures such as French aristocrat Rosemonde Gertrude de La Force have carried this name, which remains sophisticated and refined today.
