[Opinions] Re: Ann / Anne
in reply to a message by Lily8
Oh, both Ann and Anne are lovely names, as long as they aren't used as middle names. I like Anne also pronounced my "native" way - AHN-ne.
I think I could never be bored of Anne-names - they just don't loose their taste, no matter how much they're used.
I think many people (together with Anne of the Green gables) will say Anne looks more complete - I agree, but it doesn't mean I dislike Ann. Ann looks more... honest, I suppose. :)
Why wouldn't Ann/Anne make a comeback? I think it has as much chances as names like Mary or Margaret - they've already such a base of history behind them that you'll need something very extreme to get them out of use.
I live in Finland, and I know one person named Anne. Anna is much more popular here.
Btw, wouldn't Anna make a great nickname to Ann/Anne? :D Lol lol lol lol

uahhhhh no Anna wouldn't make a nice nickname for Ann/Anne hehe ;)
I love Mary as well. I used to love Margaret (especially the meaning) but met a hmmmm not so nice person named Margaret so I just don't want to use it because every time I hear the name I think of her so I think I prefer Pearl.
AHN-ne is also nice!
