However, it's common variant is Annaliese, and there are those who spell it Analiese, which a poster once on here said they first misread as anal ease, and that association is hard to banish once made.
This is my DD #2's middle name and I think it's very pretty! We decided to spell it with a different variant, Annalise. It just looked like the most simple and straightforward spelling to us. I had a friend with this name in high school, too. Also spelled it Annalise, and she went by the NN Annie.
I know two girls named Annelise. I think it's a nice name. It was Anne Frank's name, though I can't remember how hers was spelled off the top of my head.
