Theanna for a girl?

[Geminimama88]

Hello,

I was wondering what people’s’ opinions were on Theanna, pronounced ‘THEE-ANNA’. Apparently it’s means ‘gracious’, according to Google!

Haven’t heard it before but came across someone with that name and thought it was so lovely and different.

Thanks xx

Makes me think of Teanna Trump..

Theanna doesn't look or sound
pretty to me.

I really like Anna but I'm unsure about Theanna 🤔 looks to me like it's a typo and should say the Anna but if you like it it's not offensive in anyway and you're never going to please everyone

It seems a bit made up - a mixture of Thea and Anna? That said, it’s OK. I quite like it.

I really like it! I think it is very pretty sounding and unique!

I really don’t like it. Anna on its own is much nicer.

Tiana is better IMO

It's not good. Anna on its own is lovely

Looks like a spelling mistake TBH.

Theano is a lovely name and I think it would be easier for others to spell and pronounce.

Its really not good, sorry.

It sounds made up. Thea and Anna are perfectly nice names on their own.

It does sound a bit invented - but then anna is added onto a few other names so I suppose it's hardly a new thing! I still prefer the original Thea/Theia or Anna/Ana, personally.

I really don't like it. It reminds me of Deanna - I knew a few of them growing up in the 70s and really didn't like them.
Thea is stunning, Anna is beautiful.
I do like Theoni as well but I think Thea is the best of those names.

Sounds like she’s the only Anna, lol - The Anna. Like The Donald.... I would find something else...

I feel like they would constantly get called Tiana by mistake

I don't like it. It seems made up and is a bit confusing. I like Thea, and Anna is nice. But I don't like this hybrid of the two.

Not for me although I like both Thea and Anna

It sounds a little bit like Sienna with a lisp.

What about Thea, or Rosanna?

Seems very similar to Tiana would probably have the same pronunciation.

Dislike

Dislike, prefer Thea or Anna.

I don't like it myself.

The very fact that you have had to tell everybody in your OP, how you want it pronounced, is never a good start with a name - it is setting up a person for 90 years of having their name said wrong.

I looked at in , and in my head said it with a 'th' sound at the beginning, (like 'think'), not the 'voiced' sound at the start of Thee.

Not sure about it. What about Tian?

It looks a bit made up and it's hard to know how to say it

How about Rosanna, Fenella, Susannah, Cassia, Estella

(I would avoid Tiana personally as it also feels made up to me and princessy)

Anna, from Channah, means grace or favour which is where I'm guessing that meaning is coming from.

Théana, from Thea, means goddess, though I'm only getting that through this site where users give it as a possibility to a modern name.

I've no strong feelings one way or the other, but The Anna sounds weird to me and, depending on where you are, it may end up fee-anna.
