1. Is it too hard to pronounce for an American?
- I can't speak for an American, but I'm British and I can pronounce it fine. AN-eye-EECE, basically.
2. Is it too hard to figure out how to pronounce for an American?
- I dunno. I just know how to pronounce it. I think I first heard it as
Liam (or
Noel?)
Gallagher's daughter's name.
3. Middle name suggestions or first name suggestions?
- I think it sounds best as a middle name.
Bailey Anais comes to mind although I don't actually like
Bailey. Also
Anais Diana,
Hollie Anais and
Merryn Anais.
4. Is the accent mark over the i required?
- Not required, but I prefer it.
5. Does it seem pretentious, especially if the accent mark is kept?
