Re: Annegret

I don't find the "gret" sound attractive at all, so it's not my style.

I don't like the -gret sound either
It reminds me of regret, but I understand how one could like the name.
The only time I like it is with Margaret, but it might be because it's broken up with the a.

Janet doesn't bother me as much, though I find it dated (probably just because my associations with women named Janet).
Margaret appeals to me more than Annegret, which is strange because it still has the same off-putting "gret" sound, and I'm not typically a fan of "Mar-" names, either... I don't know.
As for the bird association, that would put me off even more as I find birds to be very intimidating, strange creatures (the movie The Birds scared the jeepers out of me as a child, and I've never felt the same about birds since).
