Anna-Marie is in Origin.
Anna-Marie is a compound given name uniting Anna and Marie. Anna stems from Hebrew Channah via Greek and Latin, meaning “grace” or “favor.” Marie is the French and Central European form of Mary (from Latin Maria, ultimately from Hebrew/Aramaic Miryam), whose debated etymology yields readings such as “beloved,” “wished-for child,” or the devotional “star of the sea.” As a pair, Anna-Marie is often interpreted as “grace and beloved” or “grace of Mary,” and in Christian contexts honors Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary.
Double names of this type flourished in Catholic Europe and remain common in French and German-speaking countries. Usage in English rose in the 19th to 20th centuries with hyphenated styles. Notable variants include Anne-Marie (French), Ann-Marie (English/Scandinavian), Anna-Maria (German/Scandinavian/Slavic), Ana-Maria (Romanian), Ana María (Spanish, usually unhyphenated), Annemarie and Annamarie (German/Dutch/English), and Anamarie. Short forms include Anna, Annie, Marie, Mari, and Mia.
