Anna/Ana

in Baby Names
Hi! I lurk this board from time to time... And figured I'd ask for your help brainstorming. We've pretty much settled on Anna or Ana for a our girl name (team green here!). But now I'm second guessing it. I tend to prefer longer, pretty, classic type names that roll off the tongue.
So I'm looking for ideas so that we can still use Anna/Ana as a nickname. All I can come up with is Annabel or Annalise. Any other ideas??? Thanks!!

    Anna is a pretty and classic name - it's just not long. Your daughter would learn to write Anna a lot faster than a longer variant. I like Annalise but I think that of all your choices Anna is the most classic and traditional. Have you thought of using a longer middle name? Anna Arabelle, Anna Alexandra, Anna Elizabeth

    I love Annalise!
    I also like Annika, which you could use Ana as a nickname for.

    I've heard of Aannalee/Analeigh as a name although I can't get over that it sounds vulgar.

    I like Anna, its pretty, simple, and classic. Annalise is pretty too. I do prefer the Anna spelling. Good luck!

    I prefer Anna to any of the longer names it could be a nickname for.
