According to the genealogics table displayed here, Carlos II 'the Bewitched' had a younger sister, stillborn in November 1662. Had she lived, the girl would've been third in the line of succession to the Spanish throne (fourth if you considered Maria Teresa's renunciation invalid). But what if she lived? Would she be married to the dauphin? Anne of Austria, had, after all said to her brother at the marriage of their children "truly, I hope for a son for my son sooner than I wish for a bride for my nephew [Felipe Prosper/Carlos II]". Or would she simply be married to a possible third candidate? (IDK who, but I'm open to suggestions - her niece Maria Antonia was considered as a possible match for both the dukes of Savoy and Bavaria). Let's call her Maria Luisa Miguela (after her brother-in-law and St. Michael the Archangel), what would her future be?
