- There is also an asteroid called 900 Rosalinde.
Rosalind belongs to Portia group of satellites, which also includes Bianca, Cressida, Desdemona, Portia, Juliet, Cupid, Belinda, and Perdita. These satellites have similar orbits and photometric properties. Other than its orbit, radius of 36 km, and geometric albedo of 0.08, virtually nothing is known about Rosalind.
In Voyager 2 imagery, Rosalind appears as an almost spherical object. The ratio of axes of Rosalind's prolate spheroid is 0.8–1.0. Its surface is grey in color.
Rosalind is very close to a 3:5 orbital resonance with Cordelia.
