I've got an Anna - no regrets.

Don't know any other's her age locally. There will be an Annie in her reception class. We do sometimes get people calling her Hannah by mistake - hardly the worse thing in the world.

Anna is tons better than Hannah - too common. And Georgina is tons better than Georgia for the same reason.

getawiggleon · 20/07/2010 21:37

Anna Louise - the best name ever!

LynetteScavo · 20/07/2010 21:26

Anna, not Hannah.

Louisiane - I'm sort of wrinkiling my nose a bit.

Anna is my favourite name ever. In fact, I may change my name to Anna!

I like Luisa

zenoushka · 20/07/2010 16:34

What I meant was I really LIKE Hannah and Louisa!

zenoushka · 20/07/2010 16:34

I really Hannah and Louisa.

liliputlady · 20/07/2010 00:23

I love both Anna and Louise. I think Anna is used a lot more than Louise at the moment, so personally I would choose Louise out of the two.

I don't see Louise as dated at all, but as a timeless classic. It's really feminine without being frilly and silly.

mathanxiety · 19/07/2010 21:53

I like Anna-Louise or Anne-Louise, although I gather hyphens are frowned upon. I also like Anna-Louisa..

I love Anneliese.

Anna is gorgeous.

skyeplusbump · 19/07/2010 19:14

im a louise, ive always thought it a bit blah,would've prefered to be a louisa...much nicer.
also,pepole,including me, shorten my name to lou, all the time...now ive never been bulled,but i do see that it would have been almost TOO easy

i like annabeth the best

randomimposter · 19/07/2010 11:27

Anna above Hannah - though both nice.
Prefer this spelling of Luisa.

Kathleen123 · 19/07/2010 10:56

Love the name Hannah. Louisa is also lovely.

Hannah then Louisa.

Haliborange · 18/07/2010 19:34

So am I, Alouiseg. . I'm sure we both rock.

I like Anouk too, such a sweet name.

CapitalText · 18/07/2010 19:09

I like Anna and Louisa.

FellatioNelson · 18/07/2010 16:59

Agrees Louisa lovely (just that bit more unusual) and Anna lovely - a classic. (not that I'm sucking up or anything Alouiseg.

Also love the Annabeth suggestion. Julia and Juliet are beautiful too.

Fayrazzled · 18/07/2010 15:41

Anna- yes
Louise- yes but Louisa even better. If I had another little girl I'd call her Louisa.

letsblowthistacostand · 18/07/2010 15:38

Hannah and Louisa basically the two best names ever IMO, I have one of each.

Alouiseg · 18/07/2010 14:24

I'm Anna Louise. And I'm great

valiumSingleton · 18/07/2010 14:24

ps, before anybody says men often pass their own name down to a son, I'm not super keen on that either! I think it's confusing if they are in the same house. I like the idea of having a grandparent or great grandparents name somewhere in your name though.

But Anne and Anna, that would be confusing for your husband and for your parents and in laws.

valiumSingleton · 18/07/2010 14:22

Oh I see your name is Anne!

I would go for Louisa in the first position then

DrivenToDistraction · 18/07/2010 14:21

OP, did I read it right? Are you, in fact, called Anne yourself?
