I’m York based and I’d say “Stellah” and “Stelluh”. Still no rhotic R but thought it was worth mentioning

Are there any accents/places in England that didn't have a rhotic R as default in the past before it began to die out?

What about adding an R? On Doc Martin they call her Louiser (not Louisa)?

is there a correlation in English accents between losing the rhotic r and gaining the intrusive r?
