I’m looking for names that include “[name]Ann[/name]”. My best friend, [name]Annie[/name], died a year and a half ago and I am thinking about honoring her somehow. If I use an [name]Ann[/name] name as a fn I want to call the baby something other than [name]Ann[/name] or [name]Annie[/name].
Other names we are considering are [name]Alice[/name], [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Margaret[/name], rosemary, [name]Victoria[/name], [name]Winifred[/name], and [name]Iris[/name]. Then we would maybe use an [name]Ann[/name] name as a mn or honor [name]Annie[/name] in a different way.
So sorry about your friend. Its very sweet to name your daughter after her. Out of your names I really like [name]Annabel[/name], but I like it [name]Annabelle[/name], it looks more finished to me.
Heres some more,
[name]Annika[/name] (not very common, but I think its just adorable)
[name]Annalie[/name]
[name]Annelise[/name]
[name]Emily[/name]-[name]Anna[/name] or [name]Emily[/name]-[name]Anne[/name]
[name]Eliana[/name] or [name]Ellianna[/name]
[name]Roxanne[/name] or [name]Roxanna[/name]
I’m so sorry about the loss of your friend. I really like [name]Annabel[/name] and [name]Johanna[/name] from your list, and I love the pp’s suggestions of [name]Annika[/name], [name]Anneliese[/name], and [name]Eliana[/name].
What about:
[name]Arianne[/name]/[name]Ariana[/name]/[name]Arianna[/name]
[name]Juliana[/name]/[name]Julianne[/name]
[name]Liliana[/name]/[name]Liliane[/name]/[name]Lilianne[/name]/[name]Lillian[/name]
[name]Vivian[/name]/[name]Vivianne[/name]/[name]Vivienne[/name]
[name]Anais[/name]
[name]Annette[/name]/[name]Annetta[/name]
I’m sorry to hear about your friend. From your “[name]Ann[/name]” names I like [name]Susannah[/name] and [name]Annabel[/name] best. Here are some other “[name]Ann[/name]” names, perhaps one will catch your eye.
[name]Hannah[/name]
[name]Annika[/name]
[name]Rosanna[/name]
[name]Arianna[/name] (Although [name]Ann[/name] is not pronounced)
[name]Annalie[/name]
[name]Anya[/name] (Russian twist on [name]Anna[/name])
[name]Roxanne[/name]/[name]Roxanna[/name]
[name]Dianna[/name] (With two n’s it looks more connected to [name]Ann[/name] in my opinion)
[name]Andrea[/name] (I know an [name]Andrea[/name] who says it “[name]ANN[/name]-dree-ah”)
[name]Annelise[/name] (So pretty, it combines [name]Anne[/name] and [name]Elizabeth[/name]- could also be a tribute to someone with a variation of [name]Elizabeth[/name])
[name]Anais[/name]
I recently discovered [name]Annabelinda[/name] which means “graceful and beautiful serpent” and offers the nn [name]Bell[/name], [name]Bella[/name], [name]Anna[/name], [name]Annie[/name], [name]Ann[/name], [name]Lin[/name], [name]Linda[/name], [name]Lindy[/name]…

Roseanna
[name]Hannah[/name]-was mentioned before and has the same meaning as ann.
[name]Ann[/name] is a family name on my husband’s side so I’ve also gone through this search. [name]Annora[/name] is my favorite [name]Ann[/name] name. I’m sorry for your loss.
I wish you the best as you mourn your friend and await your daughter.
It’s a little more indirect, but there are An- names that open up the nickname [name]Annie[/name] while being a bit further removed. Four I think are beautiful are [name]Anastasia[/name], [name]Anona[/name], [name]Anwen[/name], and [name]Antonia[/name]. Those may have been suggested but if not, there you go.
I like [name]Annalise[/name], [name]Annora[/name], [name]Hannah[/name], Annabeth, [name]Marianna[/name], [name]Georgianna[/name], [name]Antonia[/name]… And I kinda like [name]Nanette[/name] and [name]Annette[/name].
I really like [name]Annabel[/name] and [name]Johanna[/name] from your list, and I love the pp’s suggestions of [name]Annika[/name], [name]Anneliese[/name], and [name]Eliana[/name].
