I really want to know what my name means but your site seems to not have even heard of my name. I know its preety much the same as the name Anastasia, but thats not how my parents wanted it to be spelled. So if its not to much trouble, could you add the name Annastasia to your very large list of names? Thats only if you actually know what it means or if it means the same thing as Anastasia.

Your name, in all probability, is just a variant spelling of Anastasia, meaning "resurrection" in Greek. It's a feminine form of Anastasius.However, your parents may have wanted to blend Anastasia with Anna. Anna is the Latinate form of Hannah, which in turn is from the Hebrew name Channah, meaning "favour" or "grace".Miranda

OK, here's the scoopIf you really want a meaning for Annastasia, then it would heve to be Anna (as Miranda correctly noted) plus the Greek verb "histamai" (*) meaning "to stand, to rise". Hence your name could mean "the grace of God stands" in Hebrew-Hellenic pidgin.(*) Anastasia is from the Greek, "ana-" (to repeat) and "histamai".
