Those are German names, not Dutch.


Olga is a Russian name, not a German name.

Heidi is a Swiss diminutive.

Ingrid is really a Scandinavian name, not a German one.

And the diminutive of Margaret in German is Grete (like Gretel), not Greta.

I love Annika because it will always remind me of Pippi Longstocking.

I recently met a Dutch woman named Mieke, pronounced Meek-uh. Once I learned how to pronounce it (I had only seen her name written before being introduced) I liked it.

I like Anneke, Juliana (fantastic royal namesake) and Amalia like the little crown princess.


Another vote for Anneke, although spelling it Annika would probably make her life easier.

Also: Janna, Marike/Marika
