I don't think it's awful but it doesn't sound like a person's name to me. My first thought would be that she was conceived on a Cuba holiday Grin how do you feel about similar names like Savannah, Hannah?

I think cigars (oddly) then think of savannah (not a favourite name at all) then think child may possibly have actual connection to Havana. Then once that is discounted (assuming she doesn’t) think it’s a bit f a ‘statement’ name and wonder why the parent/s decided to make that statement through a child’s name. Hannah?

Half of my heart is in Havana, ooh-na-na (ay, ay)

Yes. I'm surprised you like it, too.

Havana good time!
Or capital of Cuba, no worse than Brooklyn, is your surname Beckham?

Very strange but you can name your child whatever you like 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you like it go for it, it’s not my cup of tea, however it’s not the worst I’ve heard.
Ana is a nice nn.
