feminine · French origin
Anny is a French feminine name functioning as a variant of Anne, which derives from the Hebrew name Hannah, meaning grace or favour. Hannah was borne by the mother of the prophet Samuel in the Hebrew Bible, and the name spread widely through Europe via its Latin and Greek forms. Anny is found primarily in French-speaking regions alongside the more common Annie, and connects to a broad family of cognates including Anna, Ana, and Annette.
