[Facts] Annika, Anneke and Majken
The Dutch form Anneke may be considered a nn, I don't know.But Annika in Sweden is certainly not considered or used as a nn.One famous Annika in Sweden is Pippi's friend in the books about Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren.There is another Swedish name, Majken, which I think comes from a Dutch pet name for Maria, but this is certainly not seen as a nn in Sweden."You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."
"It does not become me to make myself smaller than I am." (Edith Södergran 1891-1923)
