Help[Facts] Re: Fanny
in reply to a message by Channa
Fanny is usually a pet form of Frances. It was rather popular in the time period you mentioned, both as Fanny and Fannie. When "fanny" somehow became an euphemism for "buttocks", the name dropped out of usage. A famous bearer is cookbook author Fannie Farmer (1857-1915) (here's an online version of her cookbook: http://snipurl.com/99rw).
