Carrigann Drew vs. Anniston Rose vs. Another Name

I am not currently prego but hoping to try soon for our girl. I want to name her after my sis in law who was my best friend but passed away at 18. Her middle name was Ann and these are the names I came up with. I do not want it to be obvious but just a subtle nod to her. I also have 3 sons who's first names all end with an or en so I wanted to stick with that sound. The middle name drew is for my BIL who's middle name is Andrew and the middle name rose is because my maiden name is Rose. My sons names start with C,R,R so my oldest loves the idea of having another C name he kinda feels left out.(we didn't name him, he and the first R are adopted)

Rose as the first name with a different middle name

If you wanted to use a C name ending with the /n/ sound, perhaps you could incorporate Ann into the middle name.

C-n girl names:
Carlin
Caryn
Cherlyn
Caitlin
Camryn
Carmen
Carolyn
Colleen
Caelynn
(/n/ sound ending)
Corinne
Christine
Charlene
Caroline
Catherine
Charmaine

Some other possibilities incorporating Ann (in ways I think are subtle- you may disagree):
Marian
Hannelore (sounds a bit like hannah-laura)
Hanneli
Alannah
Annora
Brianna
Channing
Diane
Diana
Flannery
Gianna
Jeanne
Jannine/Janine
Jannette/Janette
Jannelle/Janelle
Janna/Janah
Janet
Rhiannon
Sanna
Shanna
Savannah

I vote for "another name".

Carrigann resembles the word cardigan (even my phone wishes to autocorrect it) and it's also quite ambiguous alongside Drew. I dislike Anniston/Aniston as it's an unattractive surname. I do; however, like Rose.

If you have a girl, I wouldn't feel like you have to stick to any sort of "built in" parameters. Your eldest kid will get over feeling "left out" when a new addition arrives in the family.

I voted for "other name". I like the idea of another C name but don't like the spelling of Carrigann which is why I didn't vote for it. Have you considered Candace Rose? Candace has the "ann" sound to honour your SIL and also has AND to be after Andrew. Adding Rose as the middle name makes it the best of both worlds.

Personally, naming a child can be stressful enough without putting limits on yourself like a specific initial or ending. You should choose a name you love and there are many great female names that flow well with Rose in the middle spot. Instead of "en" or "an", you can look at just "n" ending names.

Ann and Andrew can be honored by using different versions like Annie, Anya, Anneliese, Annette, Annora etc... Annie Rose & Anya Rose would be lovely combos.

My suggestions below are just to give you some ideas. Some names have "an" in them, some end in "n", some begin with "C", others just sound good with Rose etc...

Caitlin Rose
Carrington Rose
Cherilyn Rose
Jocelyn Rose
Morgan Rose
Vivian Rose
Gillian Rose
Evelyn Rose
Siobhan Rose
Lillian Rose
Anwen Rose
Meredith Rose
Rhiannon Rose (if you like alliteration)

Juliana Rose
Camilla Rose
Madeleine Rose
Eliana Rose
Cecilia Rose
Athena Rose
Cynthia Rose
Marianna Rose
Lydia Rose
Cordelia Rose
Matilda Rose
Hannah Rose
