Annett

Annett is a Germanic and especially German form of Annette, itself a French diminutive of Anne, which derives from the Hebrew name Channah, meaning grace or favor. The name gained widespread use across Europe following the medieval veneration of Saint Anne, the traditional mother of the Virgin Mary. Annett is particularly common as a given name in Germany and Scandinavia, where it developed as a spelling variant alongside Annette and Anette. Related forms include Anna, Hannah, and Nanette.
