Terri-Ann

Girl name · 6 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Terri-Ann: 6 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1988.

The double‑barrelled Terri‑Ann brings together two enduring classics: Terri, a pet form of Teresa – itself believed to derive from the Greek *therizo* meaning ‘to harvest’ – and Ann, the English version of Hannah, Hebrew for ‘grace’. Though no major historical figure carries this exact hyphenated form, the separate names shine: Teresa of Ávila, the 16th‑century mystic, and Anne Boleyn, queen of England. The spelling Terri grew popular in mid‑20th‑century Scotland, while Ann has been a steady favourite for centuries
