I’m partial to last option but not committed...[/quote]

The last one is low rent and "kreative."  It reeks of a 17 year old pregnant for the 2nd time. [/quote]

You sound untraveled. It’s a common German and Nordic name. I am not an Annemarie or related to an Annemarie, but it was common enough when I taught abroad.[/quote]

While it’s true that Annemarie is common in Germany, etc. it should be pointed out that they pronounce the E abroad so it sounds like Anna, not Ann.

That’s even more confusing and more likely to confuse new acquaintances.[/quote]

I actually prefer it with the German pronunciation. If flows better and feels more like one name than a double-barreled name. I think if you are going to pronounce it Anne Marie, you should spell it Anne Marie. But maybe consider the German version. You could even spell it Annamarie to make it easier on people (even Germans would understand how to pronounce this, and they won't be bothered by the different spelling because you aren't German).[/quote]
