Lettie-Ann is English in Origin.
Lettie-Ann is an English double name blending Lettie, a Victorian pet form of Letitia (from Latin Laetitia, meaning joy or gladness), and Ann, from Hebrew Hannah via Latin Anna/French Anne meaning grace or favor. Together it evokes joyful grace or joy and favor. Historical English forms of Letitia include Lettice, borne by Tudor noblewoman Lettice Knollys, which helped normalize nicknames like Lettie/Letty.
Hyphenated combinations with Ann have been used in Britain, Ireland, and North America since the 19th century, with Lettie-Ann reading vintage yet contemporary. Records show Lettie and Letty in steady but modest use, while the compound remains uncommon. Variant spellings include Lettie-Anne, Lettie Ann, Letty-Ann, and Letty Anne; formal elaborations are Letitia-Ann or Laetitia-Ann. Related short forms are Lettie/Letty or simply Ann/Annie. Cross-linguistic counterparts include Ana Leticia (Spanish/Portuguese) and Laetitia-Anne (French-influenced).
Lettie-Ann does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
