22.0. "Kerrie Anne" by 15825::TIMMONS () Tue Jul 22 1986 10:29

	Kerrie Anne is the name of my 14 year-old daughter.  It sort
    	of goes with my other daughters' names, Julie and Leslie.
    
    	It is derived from Kerry, which, to me, is not definitive
    	enough in regards to gender.
    
    	If anyone has shortened it, it hasn't stuck.  Everyone still
    	calls her Kerrie.  However, she is very active in sports, and
    	we have seen some creative spellings over the years, such as
    	Kerry, Kery, Kerie, Kerri, etc.
    
    	We have seen the identical spelling used by others, although
    	not before she was born.  
    
    	My children are mongrels, what with being part French, English,
    	Irish, German, Dutch and Belgian, so nationality was not a
    	consideration, though it does sound Irish.
    
    	Anne was chosen because it seems to go along nicely.  (It is
    	also the middle name of my other girls.)

22.1Carrie MarieCHFV03::BLACKCAROLE BLACKThu Dec 31 1987 13:449
    I just had a daughter in March, 1987 and I named her Carrie Marie.
    I have always loved the name Carrie (Kerrie).  I chose to spell
    my daughters name with a 'C' because my name starts with a 'C'.
     I chose Marie for the same reason you chose Anne, it goes nicely
    with Carrie!  
    
    By the way, I appreciate that you spelled Anne with
    an 'e' on the end.  My middle name is Anne, spelled with an 'e'.
                                         
22.2Carrie-Ann (another spelling)COBRA::CBOIVINWed Jul 27 1988 15:499
    
    My name is Carrie-Ann.  Thats it.  No middle name.  I think my mother
    named me after that song " Hey Carrie-Ann, whats your game can anybody
    play"  My boyfriend calls me Carr (sounds like k-air). 
    
    Carrie-Ann
      
    
    
22.3Kari Ann?POBOX::PENINGERJust killi'n time, is killi'n meMon Dec 18 1989 15:247
    My friend was named after the song as well, but her parents chose
    to spell it Kari Ann.
    Originally her name was to be Dawn Marie which is a beautiful name
    as well, but as her father was driving to the hospital the song
    was playing on the radio so Kari Ann it was.
    I have yet to come across the same spelling.
    
22.4And yet another!CSCOAC::LONG_KTue May 22 1990 13:003
    My name is Kerri Ann. You know, I always liked having a fairly unusual
    name. I'm expecting my first baby and I'm having a great time comparing
    some of my ideas to those in this note file.
22.5Welsh spellingPEKING::HARDYARuby TuesdayMon Jan 14 1991 10:285
    Try the Welsh spelling...
    
    Ceri. (Pronounced Kerry.)
    
    I think it's pretty.
22.6ASDG::CALLWed Aug 10 1994 13:464
    My name is Karey Dawn
    
    My mother chose to really get creative in the spelling and be
    different.
