Biography
Following Donna Noble and Shaun Temple's wedding in Spring 2010, (TV: ) Rose was born as a boy; she had her mother's surname, as Donna didn't like that "Temple-Noble" sounded like an "old ruin". Rose was the name that she chose for herself. (TV: The Star Beast)

Rose inherited some of the DoctorDonna from her mother, including some of Donna's memories of her adventures with the Tenth Doctor. This subconsciously influenced her choice in name, her building the shed as a replica of the TARDIS and toys that she created based off of the creatures that her mother had encountered, including the Daleks, the Cybermen and the Judoon. (TV: The Star Beast)

In 2023, Rose's life changed when she stumbled across something alien while the Doctor, in his fourteenth incarnation, returned to the Noble family. (PROSE: )
