Help[Opinions] Anzie?
I found an old drawing (probably made when I was 12 or 13) and it showed a girl with frizzy blond hair who was apparently named Anzie. I thought it was indeed a blond, frizzy sort of name, and it reminded me of someone I know whose name is Dawn "Dawnzie".
So WDYT? Should it be a full name or a nickname for an "Ann-" name, like an alternate form of Annie?

I can imagine a little Anne whose brother calls her Anzie-Pansy. It drives her crazy, but when she's older it's a treasure memory!

I may be biased as an Ann / Annie, but I find Anzie very cute, as a nn. I can see a frizzy Anzie quite easily. :-)
The first thing to pop into my head when I saw the title to your thread was Anzia Yezierska, the American short story writer. I once researched her name and found that it was (supposedly) a Yiddish form of Anna / Hannah. I love it, but I worry sometimes that it could be similar in appearance to the word Nazi -- not good. But I may be over thinking that one. If you don't find the Nazi similarity, then Anzia, nn Anzie, might be a perfect fit for you. :-D
Other possibilites: Esperanza, Constanza

It does strike me as a nickname...my very first thought was for Frances/Francis, either gender.
