The color and shape looks much like a Queen Elizabeth. But your rose appears to be a hybrid tea and the QE is a floribunda.
Did you by any chance buy it from a nursery or rose grower?

You know, I was thinking it had the word 'queen' or princess' in it. I actually think I bought it, of all places, Walmsrt!
When I bought this one, I also purchased one called Kings Ransom, which was a beautiful deep red, and a yellow one which lived until last year.

Well maybe some others will comment who might recognize it for sure. I've gotten some good deals on roses at Wally World myself, so I can relate.
Here's a picture of my QE

I have the same exact roses I bought from walmart a year ago...lol I don't know the name of mine either. I bought them because they where selling them for a $1.50 bare root. all I know is the bag it came in said it was a hybrid tea the color wasn't on the bag either, I think the picture on the bag was a light pink. I was surprised to see them a hot pink color when they did bloom. they also have a very strong smell, the best $1.50 I ever spent...lol I love my roses.
