Subject: Fanny

My great grandmother was bon in Latvia to a Jewish family and am assuming that she anglicised her first name to Fanny when she arrived in England (approx 1900). When looking for her gravestone, I noticed many women of that era who were also called Fanny. Would anyone have any ideas as to what the original name could have been?
