[Opinions] Re: Anne
in reply to a message by Lily
Disclosure: My name is Ann. Ann Marie. I got everyone's filler mns for both slots. That said, I've always liked being an Ann, even when there were four of us in a 30 student class. I used to want to be an Anna, but now the simplicity of Ann / Anne pleases me more. My only quibble still is that Ann looks incomplete. I still wish I were an Anne.
I've had many nns over the years related to my name: Annabel, Annimal, Anner, etc. I started seeing my (now) dh and he asked me if anyone else called me Annie. At 35 years old I surprised myself by answering, "No." "Good," he said. Because I want to be the only one. My heart still flutters at that one. It's odd that no one else in my life had ever come up with Annie before then. It's such an obvious nn for it. Another nn I adore for it is Nan -- so medieval and Anne Boleyn-ish.
Anne boring? Not to me. But even if it is, the up side is having fun with the mn slot. Would you like some mn ideas for Anne?
