I'm pretty sure this is a direct "Maorization" of the English word "angel". [noted -ed]

Anahera is also used as a masculine name in Maori. However, it's more common for females. So, I think that the "Gender" of this name should be changed from "Feminine" to "Feminine & Masculine".Source: https://www.names.org/n/anahera/about
What a sweet, exotic name and even as an atheist I love the fact that it means angel because of spiritual reasons.

Though it sounds and looks a bit too much like a combination of "Ana" and "Hera," I still think it's quite gorgeous and regal sounding. Very nice name.
It's very pretty but not pronouced Anna. Hera is pronounced Hera but Ana is Ah-nah. Like when you say Ahh to something. It's not Anna Hera. It's said different.
One of my former favorite combos was Anna-Hera Mór, because I loved the sound of Anna + Hera combined. I had no idea this name actually existed--in Maori! I absolutely love it.

It's a pretty name, but it looks somewhat made-up because of the two recognizable names within it.
