Love Anna but can't use. What do you think of Anya?

Love this name.

Gorgeous name!

I like it! It was on my girls name list along with Anna and Rose. Would you say Anne Ya or Ahn Ya?

Vengeance demon.

However, ignoring the 90s Buffy references I like it.

Love it. Different. Pretty.

That's what I always wanted to call my dd, vetoed by DH. Still bitter!

Skeumorph · 18/01/2022 22:16

It's ok, but so much prefer Anna! Why can't you use it?!

endofthelinefinally · 18/01/2022 22:01

Anya Seton is one of my favourite authors. I have always liked the name.

DramaAlpaca · 18/01/2022 21:59

I prefer Anna but it's nice.

Lovely.

UserBot999 · 18/01/2022 21:48

I love it.

toastofthetown · 18/01/2022 21:47

I really like Anya. It’s short and pretty without being too fussy.

Newcarday · 18/01/2022 21:47

I like it, I only know one but she spells it Aanya

Olga03 · 18/01/2022 21:46

I know one woman called Anya, who calls herself Anna. According to her people are having problems getting her actual name right.

differentkindofpenguin · 18/01/2022 21:46

That's my daughter's name 🙂
Not too common, and not too out there/ pretentious, and pretty universal if she goes abroad.
It suits her, she's a sassy, funny, sporty 9 year old
