Re: Hannah and Anna
in reply to a message by jeziana
As similar as they are, Anna and Hannah have such a different *feel* to them to me and I've always liked the feel of Anna, but not the feel of Hannah.
Anna is timeless and much more versatile, imo. And I strongly prefer the sound of Anna (it manages to be both soft and strong) as well as the look of it.
I don't know...there's just that something about Anna that makes me love it and see it as a beautiful name and that something about Hannah that makes me really dislike it and find it an unattractive name.
(Oddly enough, I do love Hannelore and Hana, which I pronounce differently than Hannah.)
