Annamaria
A fusion of Anna and Maria, Hebrew at root: "grace" joined to "bitter". Barely 123 women in Poland carry it, so most people here will never meet one.
Annamaria Pronunciation
Annamaria is pronounced ahn-nah-MAHR-yah (/annaˈmarja/).
What Annamaria means
Where Annamaria comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Annamaria folds two older names into one. Anna comes from the Hebrew Hannah, meaning grace or favor. Maria descends from Miriam, a name whose meaning has never settled. Scholars still argue over it, and the senses bitter and beloved were both attached to it later rather than found at its origin.
The compound is Italian through and through, common in Italy since the middle of the last century. Behind it stand two figures: Saint Anne, the mother of Mary, and Mary herself. So Annamaria places a mother and her daughter in a single word.
On a Polish class register the name can look like a small surprise, two saints lined up where one usually stands. The grace of Anna meets the older, unsettled Miriam, and the result reads as both soft and serious. Read it slowly. Grace comes first, then the bitter and beloved sense of Maria.
