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

What's the consensus?

Nancy I know has siblings called Imogen and Connie

WhoWants2Know · 08/10/2018 20:17

My Aunt is Nancy, and her siblings are Judy and Patty (Patricia).

I wouldn't worry about another 'ee' sound but I agree something 'cooler' than Rosie would be good with Nancy.
I like Margot.

I have been autocorrected to say DS instead of DD!

I also said that if I had a DS I would name her Nancy. Great choice OP.
What about Stevie? I love it as a girl’s name.

Personally I wouldn’t go for the ee sound twice but lots of people donand it’s not my baby. I’ve got a very close friend who has 3 children all with really really short names ending in the ee sound.

Florence

I played violin with a girl called Marna when I was young.
