An uncommon Russian pick — distinctive and rare.
Annya is a girl's baby name of Russian origin, a variant of Anya or Anna, meaning 'grace' or 'favor,' ultimately from the Hebrew Hannah. The double "n" spelling gives it a slightly Eastern European character.
Annya has the warmth and simplicity of Anna with a more distinctive visual identity. It sits naturally alongside Anya, Nadia, and Sonia as a name with Slavic resonance that travels beautifully into English-speaking contexts.
Annya climbed 9388 spots in the last 20 years — from #10780 to #1392.
