Re: Anna
in reply to a message by Dracotorix
I like Anna, and I like it with some of the less traditional pairings you have.
I especially like...
Anna Rowan
Anna Calliope
Anna Lorelei
Anna Cecily
and also Anna Katharina and Anna Magnolia.
I would name my daughter Anna. It's not in DH and my top 3, but maybe top 5. We just like it, and then also it's a family name variant. DH's mom is Anita and sister is Meredith Anne after her. My sister is Grace, which I think Anna could be construed to honor.
If I had to name my daughter Anna, I'd use a family middle name. Some options would be:
Anna Margaret
Anna Helen
Anna Ruth
Anna (family surname)
Anna Naomi (though we probably wouldn't use this because Ross has a cousin named Anna Naomi).
I also really like Anna Magdalena and Anna Caroline.
I wouldn't use a nickname for Anna. Maybe occasionally Annie, as I like that too.
