A friend of mine has declared this her favorite feminine name and plans to use it on her daughter (she is neither pregnant nor trying a the moment).
It is pronounced AHN-nah-LEH-nah (primary stress on 'LEH', secondary stress on 'AHN') and I feel it is becoming popular in Germany. I hear it every now and then.
My friend thinks middle names are "completely useless" (she's obviously not a namenerd ;)), so it will be just Annalena.
WDYT?
