No matter how you spell it – whether it’s Anne with an “e” or Ann without one – the name Ann makes for not only a short and sweet, pretty, quite distinguished (in my opinion), well known name, but and an excellent option for a nickname as well.
Names with “Ann” in them already have the perfect nickname built in, so if you’re looking for long names that have the name “Ann” or “Anne” at the start or end of the name, my guess is you love this short and sweet name enough to call someone by it, but like the idea of using Ann as a nickname rather than a full name.
There could be other reasons you’re searching for longer names with “Ann” or “Anne” in them.
You could have heard a few names that start or end with “Ann,” like “Annabelle,” “Annslin,” or “Roxanne” – and realized you’re actually kind of in love with the way these names sound, thus are looking for more to make sure you land on the perfect name for whomever you’re looking to give a name to.
You may not even want to use Ann or Anne as a nickname per say in these cases.
Maybe you don’t even like the way Ann sounds on it’s own, but somehow when this one-syllable name is in a longer name, it sparks a little bit of joy in you when you hear it.
If I’m completely honest, I fall into the latter camp. I don’t particularly like the name or nickname “Ann.”
I don’t dislike it in the least, and I do think it’s pretty, I’ve just never felt it was one of my favourite names around.
That being said – names that contain the sound of the name “Ann” in them – for some reason, all these names sound divine to my ear.
There’s something that unifies all of them in making them really lovely. While I’m not quite sure what it is, I have a few guesses.
It could be that “Ann” by itself is a bit too common, sounds a bit serious, and maybe even the teensy bit plain, but combined with other syllables, to me – the sound “Ann” somehow elevates names, making them flawless somehow.
Combine Ann with even just one more syllable, like in the name “Roxanne” – I mean that’s a stunning name in my books.
Same with the name “Annette.” It’s almost as though the Anne in this name grounds the whole name, making what could be a too-much, or too-flowery name (as many names feel to me when they end with “ette,” like in Bernadette) just right.
If you came here looking for a name that contains the name Ann, I’d love to know if it’s because you feel as I do – that names that contain the name Ann are somehow elevated and feel quite balanced and pretty much flawless.
Or if it’s because you love the nickname “Ann” or “Anne” and are looking for a full name to go along with this nickname.
Or if it’s both.
I’d also love to know if you personally prefer Ann without an “e” or Anne with an “e.”
Does Anne from Anne of Green Gables speak to your soul when she explains that Anne with an “e” seems so much more distinguished than without it?
But if you call me Anne please call me Anne spelled with an E. […] Oh, it makes such a difference. It looks so much nicer. When you hear a name pronounced can’t you always see it in your mind, just as if it was printed out? I can; and A-n-n looks dreadful, but A-n-n-e looks so much more distinguished. If you’ll only call me Anne spelled with an E I shall try to reconcile myself to not being called Cordelia.
Do you agree that there’s something about that one extra letter that makes the name quite a bit different, and adds a little bit more prettiness to the name than was there before (personally, I think I do).
Do you like both versions equally? Also – what do you think about Ana or Anna?
Personally, I do prefer (strongly, in fact), Anne to Anna, the latter being what feels like Anne’s more feminine version to me.
For some reason, I feel names that have an “a” at the end sound more feminine. That could be because substantially more girl names have an “a” at the end than boy names, or because in certain languages, like Portuguese, “a” is a feminine “the,” while “o” is a masculine “the.”
Either way, I have to admit, I love both names for the way they make longer names that contain them sound (“Anastasia” anyone? To die for), so I’ve included a list of names that start with “Ana” as well.
Basically, I have names that start and end with “Ann” or “Anne,” as well as names that start with “Ana” in the following lists.
Names that begin with “Anna” are contained under names that begin with “Ann,” so hunt there if you’re looking for those.
You can also add a second “n” to names that begin with “Ana” to come up with more unique spellings for these names, which is quite nice, I feel.
I’d love if you took a moment to let me know who the person, animal, fictional character, object, or whatever the case may be, that you’re looking for a name for is.
Are you looking for a name for a new baby girl on the way? Naming the main character of a novel, short story, poem, television or movie screen play? Are you naming a new pet? Looking for a new name for yourself?
Also, if you’ve come up with a list of names you like, please do share it! Flagging your favourites can really help those looking for a lovely name that contains “Ann” out, as it’ll no doubt showcase the best of the bunch, flagging these for more attention.
