Favorites: (if I remember, I'll come back and add explanations for the favorites. But mostly it's just sound and associations)
Anna Cassiopeia
Anna Tinuviel
Anna Persephone
Anna Hermione
Anna Theodosia
2nd favorites:
Anna Galadriel
Anna Cordelia
Anna Minerva
Anna Zenobia
Anna Pandora
Least favorites:
Anna Demetra -- it's not bad, but it sounds like it's missing a syllable to me. I'd prefer Demeter or Demetria
Anna Nerissa -- it looks good, but it sounds too confusing with all the N's like "anana-rissa"
Anna Paloma -- also not exactly bad, I just don't like Paloma much especially compared to the other middle names on this list
Anna Pomona -- same as with Paloma
Anna Medea -- seems too short compared to the others.
I love Ariadne and Artemisia but I don't like double letter initials.
Middle names that start with vowels also tend to be harder to say with a name like Anna ending in a vowel.
