Hi Ray,It reminds me of Anthea... Maybe there's a connection?
It could be a combination of Ana and Thea as well.Regards, Satu

I disagree. _theos_ is Greek for "God", but where did you get _ana_? _ana_ is a Greek word, to be sure, but it means "upwards, up to, among", that sort of thing.

She's saying her name is a combination of Ana and Thea. Ana being a form of Anna, which is a form of Hannah, meaning "grace" in Hebrew.
