I love Anne and hate Ann. I wouldn't use Anne because the only difference between it and Ann is the look. To me Anne is a beautiful name to read, but it's not that great to hear. I like the idea of Anne 'Annie' on a little girl, but I'd choose Anna in an actual "give this as a first name to your baby" situation.

Anne Cecilia has always been a favorite combo. I would have had no problem giving my daughter that name. My husband was not a fan, however. I'm not sure why but he doesn't like short names. Naomi, Leah, Anne, and Nina were all nixxed.

It’s rather nice as a first name! Especially paired with a longer middle name. And Annie is such a sweet nickname for it.

I like it (only as a first name)! Meeting a little Anne would be a pleasant surprise.

It's lovely

It's my mn, because it was my paternal grandmother's mn. I also have a cousin named Anne Florence, both names honouring. I like it very much.

I used Anne as a mn for my daughter, to keep the tradition going. I would like to see it used as a fn: I'm so bored with Anna that I could scream, though very quietly and politely. My daughter's first name is my mother's, her first mn is her step-grandmother's mn and then along comes Anne.

I like it very much, though only as a first name. Like Rose, it makes a boring middle.

I think it's timeless and pretty but it's fine for middle name tho.

i dislike it, though babes if you truly feel like it works for you do it babes what does your husband think darling? has he come to an agreement? its what you think is right for your own baby hun. do whats right for you
