Opinions on Annelie?

[TurquoiseRose]

Thanks!

Looks like it's meant to be Annalise?
It's pretty but a child would have to spell it out every time.

There's also a suburb of Croydon called Anerley.

Well, we could go for Anneliese on the BC.

Annelie... Where I'm from it simply means little Anna(Anne).

I personally dislike it, tbh.

But I do like Annaliese and Anna Lisa...

Isn't it usually spelt anneli? I like it but I think it will get confused with amelie quite easily - written down the double n looks similar to an M and amelie is so very popular.

Oops, missed that update.

I really like Annaliese nn Annelie :)!

Or Anneliese. Shoot... My comments are a mess

Looks like you couldn't spell Amelie. She'll spend her whole life correcting people.

I do prefer Annelie though... It means more to us, but if it will be too much of a pain, we would go with Anneliese.

Looks like you couldn't spell Amelie

Makes me think of Amielle vaginal dilators!

A bit too similar sounding to Anally - as in Anal

My friend had an Annelie, with that spelling.
I'd never heard of it before.
I think it's a really pretty name.

Had a friend at school in the 70's called Anneli. Have never met another one. I think it's german (not entirely sure) but she was most definitely Welsh. She lived up to its uniqueness too and loved being different. Would not have bothered her one jot to keep correcting people. Although I don't remember it happening that often. Confident and sassy is how I remember her.

We're Swedish, but live in London.

Yeah, my friend is half Swedish - but lives in a village in East Anglia.
She's never mentioned having problems with her daughters name.

How are pronouncing it (if any different from the obvious)? Unfortunately all I see is Anally, as countycouncil said

I know an Anneli, it's a lovely name.

Annelie is a normal name. I'm surprised that people haven't heard of it. It's more "standard" than Amelie, to me. It's a nice name, so go for it if you like it. Though you may get people spelling it as Anna-Lee or Anna-Leigh, so be prepared for that.

I have heard of the name (one of my grandmothers is from Sweden). But I still don't like it as a given name for the bc.

I prefer Anneliese.

Mybe because the "li" ending usually just means little in Swiss German...

Idk. But that probably doesn't really matter to a Swedish person or somebody living in the UK, I must admit

I have a family member named this.

Everyone misspells and mispronounces it constantly.

It shits her mother to no end. They went with a very well known and easily spelt/pronounced name for their second (think James for a boy, or Grace for a girl).

I love Annelie, it's so pretty and different.

I like it. I like Annelise too.

It's lovely. Anneliese is beautiful too.

I absolutely love it OP. I wanted Annelie for my dd. Dh vetoed it, but I think it's beautiful.

I once worked with an Annelie as well and I'm not aware she had any issues with people being confused about her name.

Saying that, Anneliese was also very high up on my list. I think we have similar taste!
