I agree with some pp as I see Hannah is a dull frumpy old woman, it almost lacks personality I think, I see it as plain as Jane.

Anna is lovely and classy.
Skye is lovely.

Hannah Skye DOES NOT sound good in any way together- you are taking a really old boring name and putting it with something more modern with character and ‘fun’ vibes.

Skye Anna goes better.

or Skyler Anne

Skyler is ludicrous and what is euphemistically termed a ‘naughty girls’ name’

See for me it would be the other way round! Anna seems like an older ladies name to me than Hannah for some reason!

Anna and Annie are v popular right now. Annabel also, to a lesser degree.

I’m one and I’ve always liked my name ☺️ Never got confused with Anna either. There were definitely a lot of us in the 90’s but don’t hear it as much anymore.

(and I’m not a dull frumpy old woman) 😉

Honestly? Dated. Lovely name but it peaked quite sometime ago. So most people would imagine she was older than she really is.

I like it, and I think Skye goes well as a middle name too. Totally disagree with comments as to it not working because Hannah is classic and Skye is modern - that’s exactly why it does work.

My lovely Godmother was Hannah and my daughters best friend is also Hannah so a big yes from me 🙂

I think it’s lovely and whilst I did go to school with a few (I’m in my 30s) I don’t think it sounds dated. I love the name Anna as well.
I think you could use Hannah Skye despite them being very different types of names since middle names aren’t used much anyway and it does flow well, or how about:
Hannah Sophie
Hannah Katherine
Hannah Marie

It's slightly unremarkable and I grew up with many in my school, seems slightly of its time maybe. Definitely a safe name though.
