Anni

Anni is a feminine given name used across Finnish, Estonian, German, and Danish traditions, functioning as a short form or pet form of Anna, which derives from the Hebrew Channah, meaning grace or favor. The name has long been common in Nordic and Baltic countries, where diminutive or clipped forms of Anna became established as independent given names in their own right. Anna, Hannah, and Anni share this same Hebrew root, and the name remains in everyday use across northern Europe.
