Anina is a Hebrew name
Anina can be a German nickname for Anne/Anna, but it is also a Hebrew (more specifically Aramaic) name. One of the prayers used for Yom Kippur starts out as Aninu Shekhina, "Aninu" simply meaning "Answer our prayer" whereas Anina means "Answer my prayer". It's a fairly obscure name, not popular at all.
Anina Lillian is very pretty. :)

About the name Miriam (Miryam)
Anina is pronounced a-NEE-na, like Nina with an "a" in front of it.
As for Miriam or the phonetical Hebrew, Miryam (meer-YAWM), there's some difference of opinion among scholars as to what the name actually means. Miryam is made up of two Hebrew words, mar meaning "bitter" and yam meaning "sea" (and water, as well). So, while it translates in Hebrew as meaning "bitter sea/water", there's still some debate over the actual meaning of Miryam, perhaps due to translations in other launguages. Other meanings that I've seen are "rising waters" and "rebellious". I'm not sure where they come from, one explanation could be the association with Moshe's sister.
No matter the meaning, I rather like Anina and Miryam as sister names. Thanks for pointing that out. :)
