Annelys is in Origin.

Annelys is a rare, modern compound feminine name that bridges the Dutch-German Annelies and a French-inflected spelling. Annelies itself combines Anna/Anne (from Hebrew Hannah, “grace” or “favor”) with Lies/Lise, a short form of Elizabeth (from Hebrew Elisheva, “my God is an oath”). The y in Annelys evokes French lys, “lily,” a symbol long associated with purity and the fleur-de-lys emblem, giving the name a subtly floral, Francophone flavor.

While Annelies has documented use in the Low Countries and German-speaking regions since at least the 18th century - famously borne by Annelies Marie (“Anne”) Frank - Annelys appears in late–20th-century records as a creative variant, seen sporadically in Belgium, France, and other multilingual contexts. Depending on the reading, Annelys can mean “grace and God’s promise” (Anna + Elizabeth) or “graceful lily.” Related forms include Annelies, Annelise, Annalise, Anneliese, Annelyse, and the hyphenated Anne-Lys/Anne-Lyse.
