Anya or Annika?

[PickledSprout]

Can't decide....

Annika.

Don't like Anya at all, reminds me of onions.

i like Annika.

Anya - I know too many Anyas.

I prefer Anya.....probably because Annika conjures up images of Anneka Rice in her jumpsuit

I prefer Anikka, I don't like the spelling of annika.

I prefer Anya and haven't met a baby Anya before.

Anya!

Anya!

How about Anoushka or Anaya?

Anya is one of my favourites.

Annika is the correct spelling.
It's a Scandinavian version of Anna
Anya is a Russian version of Anna. So they are both forms of the same name.

Sorry, Mermaid! Cross-posted!

Anya.

Annika is too Anneka Rice for me. Maybe because I am a certain age!

Annika reminds me of Anneka Rice too. As an alternative to Anya, have you thought of
Áine
(Irish name pronounced Awnya)

Wat

I love them both.

Anya definitely , also love the Irish Aine as above

I love the name Anya. It's beautiful.

I always feel like Anya should be Anja - too scandi to be anglicised. I like Annika but going from up thread suggestions, prefer Anouska. Have a good friend with that name, she's fab

Thanks everyone. Bit of a split of preference. I am still torn! :)

my dn is anya its a beautiful name and she suits it perfectly.

she is a funny little thing and a bit stand outish, think the name is the same without being too weird.

i dont know any other anyas although her name came about when i was in a soft play and heard someone shouting their daughter anya so there is another one probs not a million miles from us.

What about Anna? It's my name and I like it

Annika.
