According to Anne, it looks nicer and more distinguished:

"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."

Anne spells her name with an "e" because that is that is how she has always known her name. It is the same as with a name like Dylan or Dillon. While they are both pronounced the same, a person sees their name as being spelled only one way.
