Hi, I just love these names: Anya, Annika but wonder if they're a little too different and should use a more classicly English name like Annabelle or Annabella and use Anya as a nn? Is this crazy? I love Annabelle too and it will work well with our other child's name. What do you think? Annabelle or Annabella? or just Anya or Annika? I'll post a poll as well - opinions needed!

My dd is Aine (Anya) and I love it! I don't think it's TOO different, myself...we met another little Anya at the library just last week. I think it's unusual but not unheard of and everyone I've talked to loves it:) I don't think you need to use Annabelle to get Anya...it seems a little bit of a stretch to me just *because* Annabelle seems so classic and Anya sort of exotic. I suppose you could do it, though, LOL!
I do like Annika, too, though:) The Anya we met was Anastacia, called Anya...that's pretty, too:)

I like Anya too, but not as much as Annika.
Good Luck,
