anna
Anna, Hanna - a feminine Hebrew descent, which translates as "graceful grace." In Poland, the name Anna has been recorded since 1229, and in the form of Hanna - since 1311, with Old Polish abbreviations: Annus, Hannul, Hannus, Anica, Anka, Anuch, Anul, Anulka, Anush, Hanck, Hania, Haniła, Hanka, Hansek Hanuchna, Hanulka, Hanulka, Hanusha, Hanuszka, Hańka, Janka, Nuchna, Nutka. Speech h- can be explained as a vow before the vow at the beginning of the name or as a word of German influence. The Hanna form, however, has become a self-named name, still with its derivative forms - also in modern times - occurs as an incarnation of the name of Anna. Other forms of derivatives: Anita, Aneta, Anika. Anna is the most popular name in Poland. As of March 2009, the name implies 1,073,778 women in Poland, which is 5.4% of the female population of the country and it is over 1.5 times more common than the second most popular name in Poland - Maria. In 2013, among the names given to newly born children, Anna was 16th and Hanna 7th.
