Marnie or Esme

We always said if we had a little girl her name would be Marnie but we had a boy first and his name is Sonny.
I am now pregnant with a girl and wondering if Sonny and Marnie is to simular to work together because of the end sounds.
Other half likes Esme which I also like.
Which would you choose?

You are right they sound a bit silly (or something) together. Esme is better.

Marnie is that awful woman from Geordie Shore...

I like Esme better.

Esme is much nicer. I also think it goes better with Sonny.

I'm not mad about either of them, Marnie makes me think of the Hitchcock film, and Esme has spelling and pronunciation issues. Esmée is the way I'd spell ot but you will get Esmé (french boy's name) Esmae, Esmay, Ezmae...
Marnie seems easier.
