Annestas is in Origin.

Annestas derives from the Greek root anastasis 'resurrection,' through the personal names Anastasios/Anastasia and their Latinized forms Anastasius/Anastasia. The concept of rising anew gave the name wide prestige in Eastern Christianity, where saints, bishops, and even a Byzantine emperor bore related forms; feast-day and Easter-time naming traditions kept the root vibrant across Greek, Slavic, and Balkan cultures.

Annestas is a rare, largely Anglicized spelling that sits alongside Anestas/Anastas and can be used for any gender. Close variants include Anastas, Anastasios (Greek), Anastasiy/Anastasiia and Anastasija (Slavic), Anastasie (French), Anastasia/Anastacia (international), and medieval English Anstace/Anstice. Diminutives and nicknames span Tasia, Stasia, Nastya, and Stas. The enduring meaning remains "resurrection; rebirth; returning to life," lending Annestas a quietly hopeful, tradition-rich profile with a contemporary twist.
