It sounds like someone who'd get murdered in a Nick Cave song.

I know an Annelli, I think it's a lovely name. I prefer this spelling to yours. Looks less made up and slightly more exotic/foreign.

It's a German name btw amd not made up.

Annelie is much better.
Annalee is too similar to 'anally' (sorry!)

Don't like Annalee, sorry. How about Amelie?

Annerley is just down the road from me. If you ever went there you'd never want your child to share it's name.

Anneli is pretty. Annalee is awful.

Ha, yes, I was going to say Anerley is an area in South London...

Annalise is lovely. There used to be one on Holby so it's definitely real.

Love love love Annaliese!

Ds has a friend called Anneli which is pretty.

Agree with womma that you might not want to call your child Annerley (have also lived quite nearby!)

I teach an Annalie and I think it is very pretty actually. I don't like Annalee though... I don't know why the 'ie' makes it better than the 'ee...'

Why does it make me think of "Puff the Magic Dragon"?

I went to school with an Annalea, we're approaching 40. Many "anally" jokes to this day from old school friends. I'd steer clear.

"in a town called honah-leeee!" Love Puff the Magic Dragon!

Anneli or Annelise are nice

Not keen on the spelling of Annalee

What about Anna with Leigh as a middle name?
