In the episode "You Gotta Have Hope" Rose is convinced that Bob Hope is her natural father. She reveals that the "Nylunds" were her adoptive parents. Anyone who has ever watched the show knows that Nylund is her MARRIED name. Lindstrom is her maiden name.
I own every episode of the Golden Girls, there are mistakes, but the story goes that Rose was left on a door step, the Lindstrums adopt her, at some point she fantasizes (sp) who her real parents are and Bob Hope it who she imagines her father to be. She then marries Charlie Nylund. While she is volunteering at the hospital, a monk starts a convo with her, and it comes out that he was her father. Have you guys seen all the episodes?

Later in that episode she tells them that Bob Hope was actually her fantasy father!!! Watch the whole episode before you let yourself get confused about the whole monk thing.

I watch Golden Girls everytime that it comes on!!! I also relised this. Her husband, Charlie's last name was Nylund. She was a Lindstrum before she was married. She even says, "We had a cat named Linstrum." Blanche says,"I thought that Linstrum was your last name." Rose,"It was, we just thought that it would have been easier to remember." Also, Rose says she never knew her father and that she was dropped off on a door step. She finds her father who is a munk.. It's very confusing.
