Joey for a girl?

DC4 is due to arrive soon, and currently the only girl's names DH and I can agree on are Joey or Rosie.

I'm worried that Rosie is a bit too fashionable at the moment, which leaves us with Joey. In your opinion, is the poor child going to be constantly mistaken for a boy? In my mind, I associate the name with a girl- because the only Joey I know is an elderly female. Probably short for Josephine in her case.

Any other name suggestions? Can't end with an "a", and must be either one or two syllables.

Joey the girl will spend a lifetime with Hmm faces directed her way.

Rosie is nice, I know some in their late 20's.

Sylvie?

I can only think of Joey from friends.
