I love name Anna, but…

Ladies what do you think? I love name Anna for our baby girl. Our last name starts with L. So my concern is that she may be made fun of because of combination of Anna L. sounding like a-n-a-l🙁 Is it reasonable concern?

    I could definitely see that coming up. I remember as a kid if there were multiple kids with the same name one would be Anna L or Anna K. You could put it as a middle name and have them go by their middle name. Hannah is a similar sounding name that might prevent that same situation. Or name her Adrianna and calling her Anna as a nickname. Ultimately you will need to decide whether it’s worth it or not.

    I don't think it should be a deal breaker. There aren't that many Anna's so the chance of her being known as Anna L. In class is low.
