Marianne (Annie for short)

[lowra]

Any opinions?

I love both the short and long versions and think it's quite pretty and unusual

My little Marianne is walking around the room with a head torch on as we speak.

It's a great name, I've never regretted using it. People do get the spelling wrong and some try to use Mary Anne (at their peril). Over her 5 years it's been abbreviated to, amongst others: Madge, Madou, Mads, Maddy, none of which I'm fond of but they don't bother me.

I'd heartily recommend it. I wish I'd used Annie as a nn from the start, as I like it a lot, but it's a bit too late to introduce it now.

One of my best friends is called Marie-Anne, I have always liked it

I like Marianne too

I loved the book "Marianne Dreams" :)

Love it. Love Annie too.

I love it. The one I know is Nan for short
