Ana is short for anorexic. My name is Hannah and I also love Anna. Just choose a proper name that everyone knows how to say and everyone knows how to spell.

What about Aine instead ?

Why not go with Honor, which is pronounced the way you seem to want it.

You may struggle with pronunciation, I would say A na. I think it is a pretty name though.

She will spend all her time spelling her name, i have to spell my surname and it annoys me. I'm an Anna and its pretty rare which is great. I think after Frozen, Ana is more common.

I thought it was pronounced Arna or Anna

It will never get pronounced correctly. I would have said Arna.
