Three Syllable Girl Names
- Hannalise
Origin:
Compound name, Combination of Hanna and LiseDescription:
How To Get Away With Murder has made Annalise a genuinely trendy name; it now ranks higher than ever been, just outside the Top 400 in the U.S.. Hannalise, by contrast, has only popped up in the Social Security list of names once, in 2013, when it was given to 5 baby girls, the minimum for inclusion. You'd think that would make it ripe for use -- but it may be a case where that extra letter adds nothing but confusion.
