Sweet Annella 🌷

Hey everyone! I recently found this gem in a caf from @snowmaiden (it was only used 11 times in 1920!) and it’s safe to say I’m in love! It sounds so soft and sweet. I love the nicknames too: [name_f]Annie[/name_f], [name_f]Nellie[/name_f], [name_f]Nella[/name_f] :white_heart:

So… how do you guys envision [name_f]Annella[/name_f]? :sparkles:

What would you nickname her and what would you name siblings?
I was thinking [name_u]Jacoby[/name_u], pronounced ‘JACK-uh-bee) - what do y’all think about that? :blush:

Some combos:
[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Marion[/name_u] (an honor name!)
[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u]
[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] (I know Mays very common… but it complements so many names well I can’t stop myself! :laughing:)

I’m so glad you’ve found [name_f]Annella[/name_f]! She’s just as you describe: soft and sweet. I picture a little prairie child. Somebody with wild hair and loud voice; gentle, watchful eyes and warm hugs. Doilies, peonies, and hand-hemmed skirts.

Of your combos, I most love [name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Marion[/name_u]! I’m a sucker for an honor name, but I love the flow as well. [name_u]Dove[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f] are both quite a bit lovely too! [name_u]Marion[/name_u] is just my favorite.

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] is really sweet! Looking at it I can’t believe it hasn’t been more popular, it seems like such an obvious (in a good way!) combination of familiar syllables. I love the nn [name_f]Nell[/name_f] which would work so well for this :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I imagine her as a really sweet, kind girl with a soft sunshiney smile. I can see her being creative, maybe sketching or writing song lyrics in a notebook, daydreaming.

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_u]Jacoby[/name_u] as a sibling because they both feel like slightly off-the-beaten-track versions of really familiar warm friendly names. (I vastly prefer [name_u]Jacoby[/name_u] the way you put it rather than ja-COE-bee!!)

[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite of your middles is [name_u]Dove[/name_u] but they’re all lovely!

Oh what a beautiful description!! I think I love Annella even more now!

Exactly my thoughts! It’s got all of the qualities but to be popular! But that means I’m lucky because it remains rare for now :wink:

Same!!! The only thing putting me of Jacoby is that people may miss pronounce it like that!

annella is quite a warm, sweet, and inviting name :smiling_face: she evokes praries, running through fields of flowers, and overall very spring-y; i love her! :tulip:

annie, nellie, & nella are such beautiful nicknames :pleading_face: love them! i can also totally see anna, ann, elle, & ellie on her too if those hit the spot for you :bubbles:
jacoby with annella is just such a saeet pair, as jacoby pretty much guve the same vibe as she does; except a tad less graceful and more mud!

my favorite of the combos you have is annella marion; like hazel, im a sucker for honor names :joy: but i adore the flow of annella marion, and it digs even deeper into the springtime feel. marion just complements annella so well :smiling_face:

i hope this helped, miley! :two_hearts:

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] is charming - bright, fairy-tale-esque, warm and lovely! [name_f]My[/name_f] go to nickname would be [name_f]Nell[/name_f] :heart:

[name_u]Jacoby[/name_u] and [name_f]Annella[/name_f] are fab together - they give me the vibe of ‘familiar but different’!!

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Dove[/name_u] is so cute!!

For siblings, I’d consider:

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] and…

[name_f]Willodean[/name_f]
[name_m]Rasmus[/name_m]
[name_f]Idalia[/name_f]
Brosio
[name_f]Francine[/name_f]

(Can’t beat [name_f]Annella[/name_f] and [name_u]Jacoby[/name_u] though, kind of obsessed!)

[name_f]My[/name_f] own middles would be:

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f]
[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Fern[/name_u]
[name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_u]Garnet[/name_u]

This made me laugh :sob: I can totally see this!!! And your descriptions are perfect!

Right?!?! Me too! Though I love your suggestion of Willodean! And I love the middles you suggested - I’m usually not even a fan of Garnet but it’s so darn sweet next to Annella! :two_hearts:

[name_f]Annella[/name_f] is sweet and summer-y. I really like the nn [name_f]Nell[/name_f]!
From your combos my favourite is [name_f]Annella[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f], yes, [name_f]May[/name_f] is a common middle name but like you said it just compliments it so well!
