Husband likes Rosie but I don't know if the 'ie' sounds at the end are odd - Nancy and Rosie...

What's the consensus?

I love Kitty and Stella!

I thought about the Mitford thing but in researching found this:

"according to The Times journalist Ben Macintyre, as "Diana the Fascist, Jessica the Communist, Unity the Hitler-lover; Nancy the Novelist; Deborah the Duchess and Pamela the unobtrusive poultry connoisseur"

😂

Off to read. My Nancy's little sister also needs a name. DH likes Jessie. I like Billie. I don't mind the 2 EE sounding names together
