I don't think Anna is boring, but I do think it's definitely popular enough to be off-putting. I wouldn't pronounce Anna and Ana the same way, so I don't really see them as interchangeable spellings like Katherine/Kathryn or something like that. I know 2 Annas and 1 Ana (but I think her name is actually short for something else).

I prefer Anna, probably just because that's the form I'm more familiar with, and it fits with the type of names I generally like.

Ana Mae reminds me of anaemia for some reason...
