Anna-Rose

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Anna-Rose: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2017.

A delicate and lyrical compound, Anna-Rose joins two timeless favourites. Anna stems from the Hebrew Hannah, meaning “grace” or “favour,” and was borne by the biblical mother of the Virgin Mary. Rose, from the Latin rosa, symbolises the flower and has been a cherished name across Europe since the Middle Ages. Though few famous figures share the exact compound, the separate components shine: Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue, and Rose Leslie, star of Game of Thrones. In Scotland, hyphenated names like Anna-Rose have become increasingly popular since the 1990s, offering a blend of tradition and individuality. The name carries a gentle, romantic quality, evoking both grace and beauty.
