Anne, and variants- Anna, Annette, Hanna, Hannah have long been popular. The name itself- from the Hebrew Hanna, means Grace. The historical St. Anne was the Mother of St. Mary- the Mother of the Blessed Mother- so there is a deep religious tone. actually in German , Anna is Anne, and Hanna is Grace- as a girl"s name. Adolph"s aide Hanna Reitsch neatly translates into Italian as Grazia Imperiale- or Grace imperiale! and while we are at it- Heinrich Himmler comes across as Enrico Di Angelis- Henry of the Angels ( the dark ones, as he headed the SS establishment!)
