Rose Noble was the transgender daughter of Donna Noble and Shaun Temple. As her mother's memory of travelling with the Tenth Doctor had been erased, it was therefore inexplicable why Rose shared her name with a friend of the Doctor's.

Biography

Rose Noble encounters something alien. (PROSE: We Are Family ^[+]Loading...{"page":"35","1":"We Are Family (short story)"})

Following Donna Noble and Shaun Temple's wedding in Spring 2010, (TV: The End of Time (part two) ^[+]Loading...{"part":"Two","1":"The End of Time (TV story)"}) 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: We Are Family ^[+]Loading...{"page":"35","1":"We Are Family (short story)"})
