I really like Anna and wouldn't bother with the nn annie.

blinks · 25/09/2010 20:44

love annie.

i would just call her that.

beccagrace2 · 25/09/2010 21:05

love anna/annie, but also looooove Kate with rose. not keen on annabel myself.

thebrightside · 25/09/2010 21:11

Anna is lovely Smile

Skyrg · 25/09/2010 21:37

Much prefer Anna or Annabel to Annie. Nice names.
Rose and Anna sounds nice, Rose and Annie not so much tbh.

cece · 25/09/2010 21:39

I saw the thread title and came on here to say Anna or Annabel Smile

jemimap · 25/09/2010 23:04

I have Rose and Annie! (and Florence) I love Annie and have had many many lovely comments about her name and how well they 'go together'

pointydog · 26/09/2010 09:11

Do not like Annabel at all.

jabberwocky · 26/09/2010 09:12

I love Annabel andthe nn Annie.

Tangchi · 26/09/2010 09:20

Thanks for your posts - we are worried that Rose and Anna sound like two parts of the same name 'Roseanna' and Annabel sounds too fluffy after the simplicity of Rose. We love Annie but that may sound a bit nicknamey on its own

Exactly, Annabel is too fluffy.

jabberwocky · 26/09/2010 09:25

Well, how about something equally simple like Grace?

badcoverversion · 26/09/2010 11:35

My first thought was Emily...probably because of The Zombies song, which is beautiful but depressing as all fuck.

Skyrg · 26/09/2010 15:07

When I hear Annie I either hear 'A knee' or I'm reminded of the musical, with that awful screechy voice...
It also does sound a bit nicknamey to me tbh. And I put it with names like 'Millie', names which aren't very strong sounding iyswim. (Sorry anyone with a Millie).
Just my opinions though..

sophieandbelly · 26/09/2010 15:32

love anna it was on my list before dp crossed it off Sad and so is rose, u have good taste!!

thumbwitch · 26/09/2010 15:34

Fleur.
I really really don't like Annie, also because of that godawful musical.
Anne/Annabelle/Anna - all fine though.

flopsy1974 · 27/09/2010 17:36

Anna is a lovely name.

smother · 27/09/2010 17:39

Anna is gorgeous and I really like the nn Annie - am a little jealous of the Rose and Annie combo!

ElephantsAndMiasmas · 27/09/2010 17:42

Elizabeth

Kate is also lovely

Love Anna - that's down for fantasy future DD.

I like Anna rather than Anne or Annie.

Unless you want a flower theme in which case Iris....

grapeandlemon · 27/09/2010 17:45

I have an Annie Rose they go together really nicely imo

liliputlady · 27/09/2010 19:16

Anna is lovely.

DaisyDaresYOU · 28/09/2010 15:33
