200+ Compound Girl Names

- Analuisa
Origin:
Compound name, blending Ana and LuisaMeaning:
"grace + renowned warrior"Description:
This pretty compound name uses the Spanish variations of Anna and Louisa to create a light but powerful name. Artist Analuisa Corrigan, who is in a relationship with actor Logan Lerman might have drawn attention to the name, which climbed more than 7000 places in the US stats between 2022 and 2023. Ana Luisa is also a jewellery brand, which again might have brought the name into the spotlight.
- Louann
Origin:
Compound name, a blend of Lou and AnnMeaning:
"strong in battle and grace"Description:

Louann did feature at the latter end of the US Top 1000 between the 30s and 60s, but in recent years, it has only been given to a small handful of girls. Still, with the look of Elowen about it and the sounds of Luna, perhaps there is still a future for Louann? A notable bearer is Dr Louann Brizendine, an American neuroscientist and writer.
