Anna

I like the feminine simplicity of this name... thoughts? Too plain? I like Annie as a nickname.  any other variations of this name? (I can think of Annika, Annaliese, Annabelle)

I think Anna is beautiful, I don't care for the other variations you listed though.  Anna is simple and classic- very nice!

Anna Claire was one of our girl picks. Lovely!

Anna is pretty. But I love Annaliesa/Annaleisa more. I depends on which way you like to spell the name. I have seen both.

One of my best friend's little girl is named Anna Claire.  I think it is a great name.

I LOVe Anna. Tried to convince DH but he wasn't into it. I'm still going to push for it if we have another girl.

I think Anna Jane is pretty.

Love Anna... also like it spelled Ana.

I love Anna - it's simple with an elegance that grabs me...probably because of the movie, The King and I. "I do not believe there is such a thing as snow"

Annabelle is a favorite of mine, but Anneliese is beautiful too. Still, I think in this case, I'd stick with Anna.
