I'm not too fond of Annie, but I do like Anne. Annie and Anna are the really popular versions right now. My middle daughter's middle name is Anne, and if our last name wasn't one syllable, I'd probably have used it as her first name. It's a shame Anne is almost always regulated to middle name status.
See, we only know one Harper and he's a man. I think it's totally gender neutral though but the kids say it's too boyish. Too bad for them that they don't really get a say

I love Anna, but yes it is way too popular. I only know one Annie though.

Hmmmm, so at this point we're really thinking Harper Frances, much to the kids dismay.
