Marianne or Marian are both lovely. |
I vote for Anne-Marie/Anne Marie or Marianne/Mary Anne/Marian. I love the Mari + Anne combination ![]() |

I'd spell it: Annelise

DP. Kids will need to be fairly literary to make Anais jokes, but it doesn't take an AP student to get to anal s3x jokes from Annalise. |

I’m Anne Marie, but have been called Annie since I was a baby. Please just call her Annie. Having multiple names is annoying and confusing!!
|
Annelise and Anika are my favorites.
I would personally not go with a name that ends with -anne or -anna because I think the nn Annie for these is to non-intuitive, and that makes it more likely that people will try to call your kid something else. If you want her to go by Annie but don't want to name her Anne or Annie, then you should choose a name that starts with An- or Ann-, which people are apt to shorten to Annie anyway. |
Don't do these, she'll get called Angie, which I like a LOT less than Annie. Even if you call her Annie, she'll get called Angie sometimes. |
