This name reminds me of Annemarie from Number the Stars. I like this name; I think it sounds feminine, yet strong and not too girlish. It sounds appropriate on people of all ages.
Annemarie is a very beautiful name. Sounds French, elegant and classy. I prefer Annamarie to this one, but it is also very beautiful and nice. The only thing I dislike is that it gets shortened to Anne too many times while it's actually a very nice name when said altogether. This would be the reason I might not consider this name for my future child.
The Dutch pronunciation for Annemarie is: ahn-nə-mah-REE. [noted -ed]Annemarie is also used in Limburgish, and there are *two* possible ways to pronounce this name in Limburgish. The first way is exactly the same as the Dutch pronunciation that I just mentioned above. The second way resembles the way a French person would pronounce it: ahn-mah-REE.
Of course Annemarie is a name. Anne-Marie is the name of Queen Margrethe II's second little sister, Queen Anne-Marie. The other one is Princess Benedikte.
I think this is one of the most beautiful names I have ever heard. My mother bestowed this name upon me and I could not think of a more regal, sophisticated, tastefully traditional name. At a time when Britneys, Ashleys, and Lindseys were running rampant, I am glad I was given a more meaningful and unique name.

In Denmark Annemarie is more used as Anne-Marie but it is pronounced the same way.
I personally don't like it all that much. The name means nothing. I have it as a name.

... "this name means nothing"? Look at the constituent parts and you get the meaning. (If you're talking about de-lexicalisation, that's another phenomenon that's pretty much hit every American/European name, save for newer ones that are derived directly from lexical words in current usage.)Between this name and "Annamaria" or "Anne-Marie" or other variants, I must admit I like this one the best. Then again, my opinion's most likely influenced by the fact that I have a good friend who bears it, and I see her zest for life popping out of the vowel combination (primarily through its interaction with the consonants around it) to pleasantly surprise me every time.
