Subject: Names that start or end with "Ann"

Hi All!

So we've pretty much decided on naming DD#2 Violet (FN) (or maybe Violeta (spanish spelling) but are undecided on the MN. We want to honor MIL whose middle name is Ann, but have been thinking of doing something more indirect. Like Anabel, Annika, Lucianna .... but I can't quite get the flow right. Our last name is two syllables, starts with S and ends with L. Any suggestions? Opinions?

Thanks!

Hmm, that's tough because most of the names i can think of that end in -ann have an e at the very end. Are you opposed to anne endings?

Actually I think Violet Ann is really nice.

Lol, thanks guys. :-) I think I'm over thinking it. I fell in love with Violet Ann when I was like 8 weeks preg and now I'm worried that I didn't look at other names enough. While I love DD#1s name, I still have a small amount of name regret for not pushing harder for my favorite.

I did kinda prefer Anne since it seems more finished (but that doesn't make sense since it would be spelling MILs name wrong), so I'm not opposed to e on the end of variations.
