Family Name Tradition

General Name Discussion

My grandmother’s name was [name]Anne[/name] and her daughter (my mom) has a name incorporating [name]Anne[/name] in it. If I am having a girl, DH and I are going to try use [name]Anne[/name] in her name. The only problem is that I don’t just want the name to be added on, I want it to be a name with [name]Anne[/name] already in it. Does anybody have any ideas?

[name]Annabel[/name] or [name]Anneliese[/name] were the first two that came to mind.

[name]Do[/name] you want [name]Anne[/name] variations([name]Anna[/name], [name]Hannah[/name], [name]Annabel[/name], Annabeth, [name]Annie[/name], [name]Joanne[/name], [name]Marianne[/name] etc…)? or names hyphenated with [name]Anne[/name]? ([name]Anne[/name]-insert a great name here)? Or [name]Anne[/name] as a first name with a great middle ([name]Anne[/name] [name]Cecilia[/name], [name]Anne[/name] [name]Cordelia[/name], [name]Anne[/name] [name]Delilah[/name], [name]Anne[/name] [name]Matilda[/name], [name]Anne[/name] [name]Olivia[/name], [name]Anne[/name] [name]Josephine[/name] etc…)? Or [name]Anne[/name] as a middle ([name]Jessica[/name] [name]Anne[/name], [name]Nora[/name] [name]Anne[/name], [name]Helena[/name] [name]Anne[/name], [name]Gracie[/name] [name]Anne[/name], [name]Coral[/name] [name]Anne[/name], [name]Maisie[/name] [name]Anne[/name] etc…)

Seems like there are many different routes you could take to incorporate [name]Anne[/name] and honour your family tradition!

I really love [name]Hannah[/name], [name]Annabel[/name], [name]Annika[/name], [name]Johanna[/name], and [name]Anneliese[/name] as ways to honor an [name]Anne[/name]/[name]Anna[/name]. I really love the double name [name]Anne[/name]-[name]Sophie[/name], too, I think that’d be a brilliant and refreshing way to honor an [name]Anne[/name]!

Good luck!

[name]Annika[/name] and [name]Anneliese[/name] were the first 2 that popped into my head :slight_smile:

7

I’ve always liked [name]Lianne[/name]/[name]Leanna[/name].

My all time favorite girl’s name is [name]Anne[/name]! I was only able to use it as a middle name for my daugter:( I would strongly encourage using [name]Anne[/name] as the first name. Why mess with perfection?
