Well, I suppose you can't spell this name wrong, since it's the same backwards and forwards! A nice name, I think.

I have seen Anona linked with the Roman goddess of the harvest and the name is said to derive from the Latin for "pineapple"!

It's a variant of the Sumerian Innana meaning "lady of heaven".

I'm reminded too much of the (now archaic, but common in Shakespeare) English phrase "anon", which was synonymous with "soon" or "in a minute".

I read on nameberry.com that this was Latin and meant "Of the Harvest". And that it was the name of the Roman goddess of harvest.
