[name]Hi[/name],
I was wondering what you think of [name]Hannah[/name]. I would never use it due to personal connections, but I love the symmetry of it. I don’t think that it’s that popular because O only know one [name]Hannah[/name].
I think it can fit into almost any time period (I’m an author)
What do you think?
Thanks,
[name]Ellie[/name] xx
I know quite a few Hannahs, actually. I agree with you it fits with a lot of different eras and is versatile, but I attribute that to the lack of uniqueness it has. I just find it a bit bland. I, too, write, and when I use the name [name]Hannah[/name] I always ensure there’s either an interesting middle name or last name to go along with it.
I also prefer the [name]Hanna[/name] spelling. I’ve used the Japanese variant, [name]Hana[/name], several times as well (it means ‘flower’, which I think is lovely, and I believe in the particular story I used it as a nickname for [name]Hanako[/name]). There’s also the [name]German[/name] [name]Hannelore[/name], which I’ve yet to use but could fit right into a fantasy or period drama.
I love this name also but i’m the same as you on not being able to use it.
I knew 4 [name]Hannah[/name]'s at school. And 1 person recently had a little girl and called her [name]Hannah[/name].
I love [name]Hannah[/name].
I should like [name]Hannah[/name]. It fits in the style of a lot of my favorite names. However, I have never been a huge fan. I don’t dislike it, but it seems a bit watered down. I would much rather see [name]Anne[/name] or [name]Anna[/name].
[name]Hannah[/name]'s a lovely choice. It definitely fits into any era.
I love [name]Hannah[/name]. I think it’s sweet, and like you said it could fit into anytime period. And it could fit into any social class. The only hesitation I have is it’s popularity. I know more than 10 [name]Hannah[/name]'s but I still think it’s a lovely name. (plus [name]Hannah[/name]'s my favorite character in the bible)
It’s kind of bland. And overused.
I love [name]Hannah[/name]. If my hubby would get on board with it, I would use it.
[name]Hannah[/name] is one of my favourite Biblical names for girls. I think its softness and simplicity is a key ingredient to my attraction. I’ve known many [name]Anna[/name]'s and [name]Ana[/name]'s throughout my life but I’ve never met a [name]Hannah[/name]. [name]Hannah[/name] is a timeless and classic name so it fits any era.
I love [name]Hannah[/name]! It has very special ties to both my mom and grandmother, so if given the chance, I’ll probably use it. I love the story of [name]Hannah[/name] and Elkanah and [name]Samuel[/name] and [name]Eli[/name] in the Bible, too. I think it’s very sweet, and yes, very timeless. 
At one point, I think it was number 2 in the country, but it’s gone down significantly since then (around number 23 or so? I think?). Still fairly popular. I had a coworker named [name]Hannah[/name] a couple of weeks ago, and there is a little [name]Hannah[/name] that frequents my church. I think those are the only two I know, though.
It’s boring. Not a fan.
It’s OK. Nothing really wrong with it other than it’s become sort of ho-hum and overused.
I don’t like when people use it with the MN [name]Grace[/name]. [name]Hannah[/name] [name]Grace[/name] sounds nice, but they mean the same thing and are redundant.
I like it, even though I really should love it. I agree with pps about it being watered down. I know two Hannahs already, and there’s probably several more I don’t know about at my school alone. I’ve always liked the [name]Hana[/name] spelling, but as a fan of symmetry, [name]Hannah[/name] is my favorite.
I love it. I like that it’s a palindrome, and I just love saying it.
I dislike [name]Anna[/name] and [name]Anne[/name] but I love [name]Hannah[/name]/[name]Chana[/name].
My paternal granddad’s Hebrew name was the much rarer male form and I wanted to have [name]Hannah[/name] on the list for a girl, but my DH has vetoed it.
It feels like more of a heritage pick to me (I’m Jewish) than [name]Anne[/name]/[name]Anna[/name]. I don’t actually think its as timeless outside that community as [name]Anne[/name]/[name]Anna[/name] though. I don’t think it was used that much by Christians until the Protestant Reformation?
