Meaning & Story
A variant spelling of Anya or Anna, meaning grace or gift of God, with a distinctly Eastern European flavor.
Annya blends the grace of Anna with a slightly exotic spelling that gives it an Eastern European or Russian warmth. It's simple, sweet, and rolls off the tongue easily — exactly what you want in a pet name you'll be calling dozens of times a day. The double-N spelling gives it a little visual distinction from the more common Anya. For an affectionate, gentle pet with soulful eyes, Annya feels exactly right.
