[Facts] Re: King Anna and his name
Since Old English is quite closely related to Old Frisian, we should also take into account the possibility that the king's name is etymologically related to the masculine Frisian given name Anne:https://www.behindthename.com/name/anne-2 (I was unable to link to this specific entry in the usual way on BtN)Also see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Frisian_languages (in English)
