Anna or Hannah?

[proudfoot]

Opinions on these 2 please. Which do you prefer?

Anna. I've known horrible Anna's and Hannah's.

I prefer Hannah as it is softer... I think Anna it a harder sounding name (no reference the the person just the sound of the word).

Hannah just sounds prettier to me.

Anna!

Anna for sure. It's so clean and pretty and classic. Hannah is okay, but Anna is so much nicer. :)

Seems most people prefer Anna. Anna is a family name so I was leaning more towards it anyway (would be in the middle) but after watching something with a Hannah on TV last night I started wondering if it sounds a bit nicer... still not sure!

I should confess that I am very biased towards Hannah (whispers very quietly) because I am one in RL and have always loved my name ;)

Hannah

We has this debate and I think both are great. We chose Anna..disagree that it is a harsh sound and also disagree that a name has much to do with whether a girl is nice or mean! I am of the school that likes family names as middle names but if you're not fussed then just pick which sounds better with your other names and think about initials - whether they spell out anything etc..
Good luck!

Hannah

I think Hannah and dh thinks Anna!

Anna it's less frequently used I think. I have two lovely friends called Anna.

They're both nice names. I slightly prefer Anna as it just seems a bit more simple/elegant/classic. But Hannah is pretty too.

Anna

Definitely Anna. Hannah sounds like you are huffing over something.....

Both lovely. Both work internationally. I'll vote Anna because it's a bit less popular & lovely & literary
