What a beautiful name. Anna is derived from Hannah, from the Hebrew name חַנָּה (Channah) meaning “favour, grace”. You might know the classic name Anne, which was very popular before. But around the end of the 90s, the name Anne was overthrown by Anna!

Inès is the Hispanic form of Agnes, that comes from the Greek “agnê”: pure. Ines is also an Arabic first name which means “kind” and “sociable”. The popularity of this nam confirms that nowadays, French parents like short names.

Ambre is the French translation of “amber”, a fossilized yellow or orange resin that can be used for jewelry. But ultimately, the word comes from Arabic عنبر (‘anbar).
