Put your thinking caps on!!

I need some ideas for girls names that end in *ie*, *y* or *ee*, anything that has the "E" sound at the end of the name. I know it's a bit odd but all of my girls names follow this rule. Aside from my herd queen, Nana [very first goat, that was her name when I got her and since my grandmother was always known to me as "Nana" had just passed away and I live in her home on the farm she dearly loved, I kept it..figured it was a sign] the next few girls I got were already named and just happened to have this in common so I stuck with it.

I'm not sure how many I will be retaining this year but I'd like to put together a list of possible names and figured you all could help. I don't care if they are odd or off the wall type names (kinda like those) and if they have some sort of meaning to them I'd love to know so I can possibly match them to the right girl.

These are the names I already have in my herd:

Lucy
Kayli
Kelli
Sally Brown (Charlie Brown's sister)
Aggie
Annie
CoraLee
Sadie
Dotty (BLK/WHT loud spotted Nubian)
Daisy
Frosty (has white *frosting* through her coat)
Cookie (looks like a chocolate chip cookie)
Nibbly (Nibbles EVERYTHING!!)
Macy (previously had a Rotweiler by that name and this girl is fierce)
Gracie
Pippy
Zoey
Effie
Ruby
Nancy

*I think that's all of them!

So you get the idea, some have reasons some don't. Just kinda a fun thing to do.

Hmm.. When I worked at an animal shelter we always added the E sound whether or not it was supposed to be there. We had a lot, but for some reason I can only recall a few.. Stormy, Breesy
