What is the meaning of the name Anne-Marie ?

The baby name Anne-Marie is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced English: /æn məˈriː/ (ANN-muh-REE); French: /an maʁi/ (ahn-mah-REE).

Anne-Marie is in Origin.

Anne-Marie is a French compound feminine name combining Anne (from Hebrew Channah, “grace, favor”) and Marie (from Miryam, interpreted as “beloved,” “bitter,” or “of the sea”). In devotional reading it signifies “grace of Mary” or “grace and beloved.” Hyphenation reflects French naming conventions; the form embodies veneration of Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary.

It spread through Catholic Europe and francophone communities from the 17th century, peaking in the 19th and 20th centuries. International counterparts abound: Annemarie and Annamarie (German, Dutch), Ann-Marie or Anne Marie (English), Anna-Maria (Scandinavian, Slavic), Ana María (Spanish), Ana Maria (Portuguese, Romanian), Annamaria (Italian), Annamária (Hungarian), and Anna Maria (Polish). Nicknames include Anne, Annie, Anna, Marie, Mimi, Mari, and AM. Related doublets pair Anne/Anna with Mary/Maria in many languages, preserving the blended sense of grace linked to Mary.
