Oh and I are thinking about girls names. We both like Anna but also agree that we would like Anna to be a nn or shortened version of a name.

Any suggestions of a full name that we could shorten to Anna?

do you think there will be a spate of Ana/Anastacia's in 8/9 months time as some kind of tribute to the 50 shades of grey baby boom that is predicted? Grin

None of these are as nice as plain Anna!

I'm liking Annalise, Marriana, Lilianna!

Anastasia too but I don't think it sits too well with our surname. not that I'm ruling it out though.

Thanks again Thanks

Marianna

You've already had Annemarie and Annamaria suggested but there is also Annamarie.

Ham69 · 26/07/2012 09:08

Same amount of syllables, but I love Anya. Anna on it's own is lovely though.

AnnaFender · 26/07/2012 08:34

Love Anna on its own, but also love Annalise and Anastasia as a longer form.

zxcv123 · 26/07/2012 08:21

How about Anoushka? I love that.

Lannie33 · 26/07/2012 02:59

Liliana

But Anna is beautiful as is.

Anna is perfect and beautiful as it is. (And I don't have one!).

Some of these are really obvious now they are being mentioned, but I never thought about them before. I was stumped!

Ooo Annalise/Analise was on our list and I do really like it!

Definitely a top contender!
