So tomorrow we have an appointment to register our 3 month old. Yep, we are late. We decided on Ann/e as a middle name for our daughter as its the middle name of both our mothers and we thought it was a nice idea. So we told everyone. Then found they spell it differently. Neither of us will agree to the in-laws spelling. So now we are looking for names that include or suggest Ann/e but not the name itself. Any ideas? Thanks.

I love Annie. And although it's a cutesy version, it's OK as a middle name.

I like Anna actually and that would be quite a simple switch! Seeing it written down I quite like Annette too. Hmm.

I suggest Marianne.

SocksRock · 09/06/2017 00:06

My DD2 is Anwen and we use Annie and Ann as nicknames

Pemba · 09/06/2017 05:18

Anna or Annie the most obvious (and nicest).

Twoevils · 09/06/2017 05:29

Annis which is a form of Agnes

rizlett · 09/06/2017 05:54

Just spell Anne/Ann however you want to spell it - the in-laws will get used to it.

Footle · 09/06/2017 05:56

Nancy is an old and beautiful form of the name.

Butterpuff · 09/06/2017 08:19

Rizlet trouble is its me and dh who can't agree. I like Marianne.
