Anna-Maria

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Anna-Maria: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2020.

Anna-Maria is a melodic double-barreled name blending Anna, from the Hebrew Hannah meaning "grace," with Maria, the Latin form of Mary, whose Hebrew root may mean "bitter" or "beloved." One notable bearer is Anna-Maria Ravnopolska-Dean, a Bulgarian harpist and composer renowned for championing contemporary music. Another is German pop singer Anna-Maria Zimmermann, known for her energetic Schlager hits. While no major places derive directly from the combined name, both Anna and Maria are embedded in countless place names worldwide—from Annapolis in the United States to Santa Maria across Europe and the Americas. This graceful pairing has remained a steady choice for parents in Scotland since the 1970s, often written as Annamaria or Anna Maria, and carries a classic elegance that feels both timeless and distinctly European.
