Which actress was originally cast as the youngest sister Phoebe Halliwell in the American TV series "Charmed"?

"Charmed" is an American fantasy drama television series created by Constance M. Burge and produced by Aaron Spelling and his production company Spelling Television, with Brad Kern serving as showrunner.

Former "Beverly Hills, 90210" actress Shannen Doherty was cast as the eldest sister Prue Halliwell, while her best friend at the time and former "Picket Fences" actress Holly Marie Combs played the role of the middle sister Piper Halliwell. Lori Rom was originally cast as the youngest sister Phoebe Halliwell in the 28-minute unaired pilot episode. However, Rom quit the series, and a new pilot was filmed with former "Who's the Boss?" actress Alyssa Milano in the role of Phoebe.

Assumed it was a tricky question and opted for 50/50. Alyssa Milano seemed too obvious, so I opted for the other name I didn’t recognise.
