Oh and I are thinking about girls names. We both like Anna but also agree that we would like Anna to be a nn or shortened version of a name.

Any suggestions of a full name that we could shorten to Anna?

My youngest is Eliana which we initially shortened to Ellie but once she could talk she shortened it herself to Ana and that is now who she is.

I know a little Annalise - cute.

twizzlestix · 25/07/2012 21:51

Annabel
Analise
Hannah

I can't think of any more. Maybe others will be more inspired

Ooo Annalise/Analise was on our list and I do really like it!

Definitely a top contender!

Some of these are really obvious now they are being mentioned, but I never thought about them before. I was stumped!

Anna is perfect and beautiful as it is. (And I don't have one!).

Lannie33 · 26/07/2012 02:59

Liliana

But Anna is beautiful as is.

zxcv123 · 26/07/2012 08:21

How about Anoushka? I love that.

AnnaFender · 26/07/2012 08:34

Love Anna on its own, but also love Annalise and Anastasia as a longer form.

Ham69 · 26/07/2012 09:08

Same amount of syllables, but I love Anya. Anna on it's own is lovely though.

shimmy0 · 26/07/2012 09:29

You've already had Annemarie and Annamaria suggested but there is also Annamarie.

PurplyWurply · 26/07/2012 18:35

Marianna

xDivAx · 26/07/2012 19:41

Thanks all for your suggestions, there are some really lovely names, and has given us some food for thought.

I'm liking Annalise, Marriana, Lilianna!

Anastasia too but I don't think it sits too well with our surname. not that I'm ruling it out though.

Thanks again Thanks

None of these are as nice as plain Anna!
