Re: Anna
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.

I DID name my daughter Anna, her mn is Lynn (its a family name). I would have rather named her Anna Elizabeth, but DH liked Lynn better. I also like Anna Grace or Anna Lorelei
