Default Name a rose

Hello

I wonder if it is possible to name a rose after my wife? What I am
looking for is one that I can name that will go out to numerous
garden centre's etc and become a "known" variety. I was diagnosed
with terminal cancer last August and wanted to do this before I go,
Can anyone here help me, or is there something similar I can do
before too long? Thank Simon

Thank you everyone for your help and kind words. I will contact David
Austin and see if he can help. I wanted the name Georgina Joy for the
rose, not my nick name for her which is lettuce as she is always in
the garden. I think Georgina Joy may sound better.


Such a pretty name I bet she loves 'lettuce' though
