Looking at your other thread and I think Rosie would go really well with Annie! Lovely names!

I would go for another shortish, two syllable name but not an ie ending or an A beginning. Oh, and not Bella or Elsa!

Clara, Cara, Carys, Cleo, Emma, Ella, Eva, Erin, Eden, Flora, Freya, Greta, Giselle, Hannah, Hazel, Honor, Isla, Iris, Kiera, Layla, Lyra, Lois, Leah, Laura, Mila, Mika, Mala, Martha, Maia, Nina, Nyah, Orla, Pippa, Rosa, Rhiann, Seren, Sara, Summer, Tara, Tessa, Thea, Willow, Zara

Both Rose and May are lovely and both would work beautifully as a sister for Annie. Rose is my favourite.

Clarribel? Shouldn't that be Clarabelle? Anyway, whatever - it's a cow with a bell with round its neck. Kind of Vache qui Rit. Although as this is Mumsnet, I think Vachekiria would make a lovely girl's name.

We have an Annie (Annabelle but she gets her nickname 99% of the time) .. sister is going to be Daisy Smile

Our other consideration was Amelia..

@Bol87 those are two names that Americans give to cows. I like the name Annabel and the name Daisy and at the risk of criticising American naming trends - they can give nicer names to cows than to children - but those two names together could bring to mind a herd of cows in an American's mind (if that matters?!) I would put something like Juliet, Meredith or Vivien with Annabel to bring out that elegant side of the name.
