Emmy and Immy - ridiculous?!

Dd1 has the nickname Immy. We love a name for Dd2 due in 2 weeks that would only have the nickname Emmy. There's no other name we like, but do the two together sound ridiculous?! Hoping you say otherwise but I don't think you will!

I know 3 separate families with an Emmy and an Immy. All are late teens, early twenties.

How do you use the nickname, OP? Is it a known-name, or an affectionate short version used only by parents and family?

Yes.

My kids have ended up with rhyming nicknames - think Oz and Loz - and it’s ridiculous!

Yep
