Ways to get to Annie...

Girl Names
1

I really [name]LOVE[/name] the name [name]Annie[/name], but don’t think it works well on its own with my last name: [name]Egan[/name]. I am trying out different names that could have [name]Annie[/name] as a nick name. So far I like [name]Ainsley[/name] and [name]Hannah[/name], but am not 100% certain that they work. Here are my questions:

  1. Would [name]Annie[/name] [name]Egan[/name] work by itself?
  2. Would [name]Hannah[/name] or [name]Ainsley[/name] work as full names for [name]Annie[/name]? If so, which one do you prefer?
  3. Any other suggestions? I don’t like [name]Annelise[/name] or [name]Annabel[/name], though.

Thanks!

I love [name]Hannelore[/name] with the nn [name]Annie[/name].

I think [name]Annie[/name] [name]Egan[/name] sounds fine. I mean it does sort if flow into the last name but I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing

I personally like [name]Antonia[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name], [name]Bethany[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name], [name]Deanna[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name], [name]Susannah[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name]

[name]Hannah[/name] doesn’t really get the nickname [name]Annie[/name], [name]Anna[/name] would be better. [name]Ainsley[/name] hasn’t got the an sound, it’s more of an ain sound, so again it doesn’t really work for me.

[name]How[/name] about:

[name]Annaliese[/name]
[name]Antonia[/name]
[name]Andrea[/name]
[name]Annabel/name
[name]Suzanna[/name]
[name]Roxanne[/name]
[name]Leanne[/name]
[name]Anne[/name]-[name]Marie[/name]
[name]Joanne[/name]/[name]Joanna[/name]

[name]Both[/name] [name]Ainsley[/name] and [name]Hannah[/name] work, but both are NMS.

Some of these are a stretch, but they do work:

[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Andromeda[/name]
[name]Andrea[/name]
[name]Arianne[/name]
[name]Orianne[/name]
[name]Ariana[/name]
[name]Adriana[/name]/[name]Adrianna[/name]
[name]Liana[/name]
[name]Julianna[/name]
[name]Alanna[/name]
[name]Anastasia[/name]
[name]Cheyanne[/name]
[name]Bianca[/name]
[name]Bethany[/name]
[name]Joanna[/name]/[name]Johanna[/name]
[name]Julianne[/name]
[name]Kiana[/name]
[name]Lilianna[/name]
[name]Luciana[/name]
[name]Mariana[/name]
[name]Savanna[/name]
[name]Suzanne[/name]/[name]Susannah[/name]
[name]Rhiannon[/name]

Here are some cool international versions of [name]Ann[/name]:

[name]Anais[/name]
[name]Anaelle[/name]
[name]Anacita[/name]
[name]Nanon[/name]
[name]Anisa[/name]
[name]Annora[/name]

I would go with [name]Anna[/name] Middlename [name]Egan[/name] nn [name]Annie[/name].

I like [name]Annie[/name] [name]Egan[/name].

[name]Susanna[/name] is favorite way to get to [name]Annie[/name]. I also really love the classics [name]Anna[/name] and [name]Anne[/name], nn [name]Annie[/name]. Good luck!

[name]Annie[/name] as a full name is nms but I don’t think it goes badly with [name]Egan[/name].

I’m a fan of the lovely, classic [name]Anne[/name] and [name]Anna[/name], but if you want something more interesting:

[name]Anthea[/name] (this would be my top pick)
[name]Anais[/name]
[name]Anastasia[/name]
[name]Annika[/name]
[name]Andromeda[/name] (ymmv, I think this would be hard to pull off, and anyway [name]Andie[/name] would be the more intuitive nickname)
[name]Antoinette[/name]
[name]Anwen[/name]
[name]Antigone[/name]
