I hate this name. And think it is overly juvenile and cutesy in a very childish way. My original name was Anne (which I also dislike) and people always called me Annie, which I hated. I went by Anna for most of my teen years, and legally changed my name to Ilana Anne, as it used to be Anne Ilana, as soon as I was old enough. Before you name your child this, please consider the fact that this name is REALLY hard to have if you are over the age of 6, or ever want to be taken seriously. Conversely, Anne/Ann are just too prim, boring, and plain unattractive.

I completely disagree with that. My name is Anneliese, and I have been called Annie by everyone since before I can remember;however, never once do I recall being seriously teased about it. I am currently twelve years old, and I am very well respected by my peers and taken very seriously by adults. I don't think that a name can really affect how one views a person; the personality affects how the person is viewed. To parents maybe contemplating this name- I love my nick-name, and won't ever change it. I've only met one girl in my life who shared it, so it's not one of those extremely common and boring names, and the worst your child could be called is Orphan Annie or Annie Bananie. What's more, I've only gotten positive remarks about my name- Ilana021251's post is the first negative remark about Annie I've ever heard in my life. All in all, I think Annie is a cute name that livens up Anne or other names starting with Anne; this is, of course, a personal bias, however, so is Ilana's post- this is just from a more positive perspective.

My mum always calls me Annie as a nickname because we once went to a PANTOMIME and one of the characters was called Nanny Fanny Annie!

Annie is a character in Suzanne Collin's book "Mockingjay" (third book of the Hunger Games trilogy). She is portrayed as Finnick's love interest.

I really like the name Annie. But only as a nickname. I think it's cute for a child, but once she's an adult I think she needs a more professional name. I like it as a nickname for pretty much any name containing "anne" and others as well. Names like Anne, Anneliese, Julianne or Julianna, Anneke, Anastasia and Johanna.

My name is Annie (it's not a nickname for anything it's literally Annie) and I used to dislike it preferring my middle name Rose although no one called me that. Now I like it a bit more I think it's alright. When I was about 12 I went through a phase and started spelling it 'Anni' to be edgy or something. Anyway it stuck so now I spell it Anni all the time except on official stuff and so do most of my friends. I haven't been scarred for life or anything. Annie is fine as a name goes and obviously my parents love the name!
