We want to name our daughter Anna, but people are telling us it is too old fashioned. We don't like any of these stupid new weirdly spelled names that seem to be the norm these days. Is Anna too old fashioned?No, Anna is lovely! It was the 25th most popular first name given to baby girls in the U.S. last year, so a good number of parents agree with you. So many old-fashioned names are making a comeback now. Just look at the current top 10: Emma, Hannah, Ava, Emily, Sophia, Olivia, Isabella, Abigail, Elizabeth -- most of those names have been around for at least a couple centuries.
Classics like Anna are definitely better than the "stupidly spelled weird names" (as you have termed them) that seem all the rage right now. I'd take Anna over Madisyn any day.
We've decided on Clara for our first daughter. My mom originally said it was too old-fashioned, but now it's growing on her.It is old fashioned, yes. . and very plain. . and she will be called Anna Banana at school. I dont personally like it, but if thats what you really want to name her, go for it. I do like Annabelle though . . and you could call her anna or bella for short.No there is nothing wrong with it, its a classic name and i dont think its outdated or oldfashionedAbsolutely not. What are you thinking of putting with the name Anna. It has made quite a comeback lately.I dont like stupid weird "trendy" names either. I prefer Annabelle but Anna is perfect too! Anne Hathaway is a great actress and has a nice classic name, dont listen to people.Anna is beautiful, is not too old fashioned. This is the perfect example of you doing what you think is right for your child. Good Luck, and Best Wishes. ♥Anna is just fineAnna is a gorgeous classic name go with it. I know an Annie and that is really cute.You could use that as a nickname if you like itAnna is a gorgeous name.
If you like it and want to give it to your daughter ... do it. Who cares what others think?
Anna is a name that has withstood the test of time. It's not a "trendy" name and it's not dated, at all. It's just a very good name. Please don't listen to those who say that it's outdated or old-fashioned. It's a perfectly lovely name.Anna is old and ugly. If I was Anna I would change my name to something nicer.
How about Avery or Aniston instead?I think it's a beautiful name, it is very elegant. She is your daughter you can name her what you want. I like Anne and Anna.I like Anna. It is an old name, but it is pretty and if that is what you want to name her that is fine its your decision.my name is elizabeth and in 1985 when i was born people told my mom the same thing. i dont think it is to old fashioned its very nice. the middle name can be something crazy/exotic like the names everyone seems to be using lately. is your baby! remember that!NO!!! Anna is GORGEOUS and classic. Incredibly beautiful. I love it. Don't listen to people who tell you it's too old-fashioned. I got that a lot too for the name I chose for my daughter (Josephine) but I wouldn't have been happy with anything else. #If you have any other info about this subject , Please add it free.# |
