Annestassia is Greek in Origin.

Annestassia is a modern elaboration of Anastasia, influenced by Anna, yielding a double-n, double-s spelling. Ultimately the name traces to Greek Anastasia (from anastasis, "resurrection"), a devotional name celebrating Christ's rising and new beginnings. Meaning: "resurrection," "rebirth."

In use since late antiquity across the Greek- and Slavic-speaking Christian world, the base form was borne by early martyrs, especially St. Anastasia of Sirmium, and later by Russia's Grand Duchess Anastasia. English usage expanded in the late 20th century; Annestassia itself is a rare Anglophone variant seen from the 1990s onward, chosen for its ornate cadence and blend with Anna. Related forms include Anastasia, Anastassia, Anastasiya/Anastasija, Anastacia, Annastasia, and Belarusian Nastassia; diminutives and nicknames include Ana, Annie, Anya, Nastya, Stasia, Tasia/Tasya, and Tassia.
