Anna/Ana names...

But then I also adore the name Juliann (No E since I'm Ann without the E) as a first name.
And recently I've been playing around with the combination Edie Georgiana. I still really like Edie Laurence (my top girl name at the moment) but Edie Georgiana is growing on me.
The problem is that I would never consider using them in combination (as siblings) because it is a pet peeve of mine to use variations of the same name and each one of these (though not variations exactly) are basically a form of the name Ann.
So my question is, which version do you prefer???

If we have a girl, she will be named Anna Grace. Anna means Gracious... so instead of calling her by her first and middle name when she needs it, hubby is going to call her Gracious Grace! It's cute, and he loves the idea.
There is something just so classical about Anna.
For me, Ann is too stubby and plain.
I'm not a big fan of longer names either like Anastasia, Anabella... etc... but out of all of those Julianna is my favorite.
Either way, you can't lose. Anna is a gorgeous, ageless name.

What about Julianna?
Ummmm....I just prefer Juliann with emphasis on the ANN.

And also, I liked Anne with an E because I'm a bit of a Lucy Maud fanatic.
But I still think it's a beautiful name any way it is spelled.
Be warned though. No matter how many times I've told people her name is Julieanne, they will call her Julia, Juliana, Julian, etc. So I've given up and often introduce her as Julie if it's not someone I intend to see regularly from then on.

I'll admit, I prefer the spelling Julianne. But since it's to honour you {Ann}, then I don't see a problem with it!
I also like some variants; Rhiannon, Annabel, Diana, Anneliese, Liliana, Anastasia, Breanne, Vivian, Adriana, Lucianna, Hannah, Roxanne, Christiana, Annmarie, Mariana and Alana.

I like the name Ann and Anna alone or together. Do you think that you like names that begin with Ann or Anna? Or do you prefer ending in it? My favourite from your list is Juliann
I think my problem is that I like both I like all three names a lot, but I cant use all three so I gotta pick one
