Will I love a compromise name? Name regret.. Help with Anna

Not a mom of an [name_f]Anna[/name_f] but I love this name so much!
I think it’s easy to really become focused on details or things no one else will notice when we name our real life children!
To me, [name_f]Anna[/name_f] is very classic, pretty, and goes really well with [name_u]George[/name_u].
This is definitely a special time but can also be really overwhelming.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] my opinion but many names sound like words and my guess is you are just noticing this now with [name_f]Anna[/name_f] because it’s so new to you. To me [name_f]Anna[/name_f] is clearly a name…I see how it could sound like “and a” when spoken quickly but that isn’t something I would notice or have ever thought of.

Many very beloved popular names also can sound like other words…Emma, [name_f]Mia[/name_f], Noah…there are so many. I’m sure parents of little Emma’s (a beautiful name) at first hear [name_f]Emma[/name_f] a lot when they say/hear “I’m a…”
I don’t know if that makes sense but hope that helps!
