What is the meaning of the name Anamari ?

The baby name Anamari is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced an-ə-MAH-ree (IPA: /ˌænəˈmɑːri/).

Anamari is Romanian in Origin.

Anamari is a compound feminine name formed from Ana (a form of Hannah) and Mari (a short form of Maria), common across Romance and South Slavic naming traditions. As a devotional double name rooted in Christian Europe, it echoes medieval and early‑modern customs of honoring both Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary, later streamlined in the 20th century by dropping spaces. The combined etymology - Hebrew Channah “grace/favor” plus Miryam (Mary), of debated meaning - yields readings such as “grace of Mary” or “graceful and beloved.” Usage occurs in the Balkans, Iberia, and Latin America, with spellings adapting to local orthography.

Variants include Ana Mari, Ana-Mari, Anamaria, Ana-María/Anamaría, Anamarie, Annamaria (Italian), Annamarie, Annamária (Hungarian), and Anamarija (Croatian/Slovene); related short forms are Ana, Mari, Mara, and Anni. Gentle rhythm and cross-cultural familiarity give it a modern feel with classic devotional roots.
