Anelie

Anelie is a German feminine name formed as a blend or diminutive combining elements of Anna and Lena, or as a variant elaboration of Annelie, itself a contracted form of Anneliese. Anna derives from the Hebrew Channah, meaning grace or favour, while the Lena or Liese component traces back to Elisabeth, from the Hebrew Elisheba, meaning my God is an oath or my God is abundance. The name belongs to a family of popular German compound names that joined Anna with various second elements, a naming fashion that flourished particularly in German-speaking countries during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Related forms include Annelie, Annelies, and Anneliese.
