ArchivesRe: Anaïs
in reply to a message by Amandine
Every French baby name book I have claims it is a Provencal form of Anne.
However, it was not uncommon for Western European crusaders to import Eastern Christian names that Western Europeans never used before, as in the case of Catherine. Anais may be the same case, but I cannot find any saints associated with the name Anahit.
