Anna-Maria is in Origin.
Anna-Maria fuses two enduring names with deep biblical roots. Anna descends from Hebrew Channah via Greek and Latin Anna, meaning "grace" or "favor." Maria comes from Hebrew/Aramaic Miryam through Greek and Latin Maria; its meaning is debated, often glossed as "beloved," "wished-for child," or linked to sea imagery that inspired the devotional epithet "Star of the Sea." Together, Anna-Maria is read as "gracious Mary," "grace of Mary," or simply the union of grace and love.
Used since the late Middle Ages across Christian Europe, the compound flourished in Catholic and Orthodox traditions as an honorific double name invoking the Virgin Mary. Forms vary by language: Anna Maria (unhyphenated), Annamaria (Italian, German), Annamária (Hungarian), Anna-Maria (Nordic, German, Polish), Ana María (Spanish), Ana Maria (Portuguese, Romanian), Anamarija or Ana-Marija (South Slavic). Related are Annemarie and Ann-Marie. Nicknames include Anna, Ana, Annie, Mari, Mia, Ria, and Anya.
