Help[Opinions] Re: Anya
in reply to a message by Julia
The vocabulary word "anya" means "mother" in Hungarian, so I associate to that immediately :-)
I like the name on its own, not as a nn for Anna (maybe for a longer name). Spelling preference:
Aine < Anya < Anja < Ania
Budgerigars, ceiling fans, the Times of India are all part of the luggage I brought into the world... Blue Jesus leaked into me; and Mary's desperation, and Joseph's revolutionary wildness, and the flightiness of Alice Pereira... all these made me, too.
