12.0. "Annalise" by 3158::DAVIS (Grins) Tue Jul 15 1986 18:31

    Another favorite of mine, pronouced ah-nah-lee-sah.  Believe
    it's French but I've seen it used all over Europe...
    
    Perhaps someone can help with the origin...

    If this name were French, it would be pronounced Anna-leez.
    
    From what I have seen in print, I believe this name is German. 
    It is pronounced as you say, for I have also seen it written Anneliese,
    and this is certainly a German name.
    
    Hope this helps.

    I would suspect that it is Italian, gut feel no reason.

12.4Definitely GermanCURIE::MPTAGWed Oct 28 1987 15:187
    
    
    The name Annalise is definitely German.  I know, because so is my
    name and all the names in my family.  Annalise, Klaus, Christian,
    etc.

12.5German or ScandinavianFNYFS::VALLEPINStay with us after the break...Thu Oct 29 1987 05:428
    Hi Lorelei,
    
    Are you sure that Christian in German ? My twin's name is Christian
    and we always thought that this name was originating from scandinavian.
    
    Any Idea ??

12.6Try Anna + ElisabethKAOFS::S_BROOKMany hands make bytes workWed Mar 16 1988 13:389
    Annalise is a name contraction, like Maryanne...
    
    This one is a contraction of Anna and Lise
    
    Lise being a diminutive of Elisabeth
    
    And I cannot remember meanings off the top of my head.

12.7Anneliese-A German Name IndeedWR2FOR::VOGELSANG_JUWed Sep 20 1989 01:1814
    
    Yes, I do believe that Anneliese is German.  My mother is German
    and her name is Anneliese, pronounced Ah-nah-lee-zah.  It is also
    my middle name, my full name being Julie Anneliese Vogelsang (my
    father is also German).  My brothers name is Erik Benjamin, and
    my sister is Monika Susanne(not like Suzanne, but Su-sah-nay, the
    accent on the "sah".  
    
    Anneliese has become a rather popular name.  My mother works at
    Stanford Hospital in Maternity and quite a few woman have named
    there daughters Anneliese.  I like it myself and will probably end
    up using it in my childrens name.

    I would go with the ITALIAN vote... Know someone with that name,
    and she's Italian.
12.9A little German history30902::VOGELSANG_JUTue May 15 1990 01:248
    
    
    There is also an old GERMAN folk song called "Anneliese", that has
    been around for a long time.
