HelpRe: Annegret
in reply to a message by Loxandra
I first heard the name on a TV show, but it is in the database here, so that seems to make it more legit. It wouldn't seem more made up to me, than say, Anneliese, which used the same compounding principle.

I just say what I think. Anneliese seems made up too.

When you think about it
A lot of names are actually made up. I mean, we didn't just arrive here with names ready to go, someone had to think of them and take from existing words first.

Well someone in history, I am certain, did invent the name, but combining names like Anne and Elisabeth (Liese), or Anne and Margaret (Grete) is hardly unimaginable as they are two classics. Combining a classic with an unusual name would moreso give me the affect of undesireable inventedness, e.g. Anzenobia (Anne and Zenobia), or two unusuals, e.g. Eurydzenobia (Eurydice and Zenobia), but Annegret seems a perfectly appealing and legitimate marriage to me.
German names can be relatively harsh to some ears, but occasionally they do come up with a winner.
