I had a great aunt called Effie, short for Euphemia. Her sisters were Lisbeth (pretty sure this would have been Elizabeth on the birth certificate), Margaret and Jessie. I never asked but I think Jessie was probably the name on the birth certificate. Annie, a family name from another branch of my family, would work well.

Were these sisters Scottish? They are very Scottish names. Traditionally in Scotland, Jessie is short for Janet but can be stand-alone. Jessica is a kind of retrofit.
