Annamaria Question
Okay, Annamaria is currently my favorite name not in this database. However, the meaning has me stumped! My 2 biggest ideas are:
A) Italian form of Annemarie
B) Combination of Anna and Maria
Both come from the Internet.
If someone could help me on this, it would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

Well . . .Annemarie is a combination of Anne and Marie, which are the same names as Anna and Maria, so the meaning is the same either way.If it's an Italian name it'll be a combo of Anna and Maria.

Thanks, and- (to Miranda as well)-Chrisell and Miranda, you may remember several weeks ago, when you corrected a very juvenile post of mine. I wish to thank you and assure you that I won't ever post a posts that is that juvenile again. I just wish to make sure that we're cool, because I hold a great deal of respect to both of you! It's been bugging me for a while.Also, what you said makes a lot of sense- thanks!Edit: Just in case, here's the link to that post: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=427110&board=gen

No problem!It was ultimately educational for you, and hopefully you've come to loathe those "baby name" sites as much as we do. ;-)

What she said I wanted to say. So ditto that.

This may be obvious, but my texts also state that it is generally intended to combine the names of Jesus' mother Mary and her mother Anne (with slight variations for different countries), thus is a great favorite for Christians and Catholics in particular.

It's a combination of Anna and Maria
To my sweet muse
Every time you rip my heart out
Every time you break it
I pick up the pen I hold in my hands
And write the most beautiful poems
But you know what
If it's alright by you
I'd rather be happy than a poet
