It's a beautiful name, isn't it?! It's actually an old German name that has popped up in my family for generations, and my husband and I really liked it! Her middle name is Hebrew for "God answers"; after 8 years of trying to get pregnant, He certainly DID!! There is actually one other Annelyse here in the town where I live, and I know of an Annalisa as well! God's blessings to your new little one - I will keep you both in my prayers!Wendy-Lee
