What do you think of the name Annika? Possibly with the middle name Violet or Nicole?

My one year old little girl is named Annika. We pronounce it as the Dutch and Swedes do: Ahn-nick-ah. The emphasis is on the "ahn". We get nothing but COMPLIMENTS on her name. It is unique, but not too weird. You will love it. However, I must say that I think Violet goes better as a middle name rather than Nicole...those names are amazingly similar sounding...sort of repetitive. But Annika is a wonderful and beautiful name....it means 'grace.'

I like Annika Violet. I feel that Annika Nicole has too many K sounds in it. Don't listen to what anyone else says, if you like the name, then go for it. At least Annika is an actual name and spelled correctly and not the made up crap everyone else is using like Jayden or Marrleigh....those type of name make me want to vomit. Annika sounds like a classy and unique name..I love it!

Reply:Annika Violet goes well if it has a last name included, like Annika Violet Connors for example, but just as two names together, I think Annika Nicole is a beautiful name :]
Reply:I like Annika. It means beautiful and not many people have this name. Do Annika Violet. The name Nicole is too commonly used as a middle name.
Reply:I really love that name and yes, I'd pronouce it Ah-ni-ka. I think it goes best with Nicole rather than with Violet, but I like both
Reply:Annika is really nice. Nicole doesn't flow with it -- plus it is so overused!
Reply:I like it better with violet
Reply:LOVE IT, ANNIKA NICOLE SOUNDS BEST, SPELL NICOLE LIKE THIS . . . NIKOLE TO FOLLOW ANNIKA
Reply:i would pronounce it the same way you do. I like Annika Nicole better than violet. its a pretty name
Reply:i love the name Violet but I dont like Nicole
Reply:I like Annika with Nicole, but not with Violet. As far as names go, though, I like Violet a lot.
Reply:Never use a name that most people will not pronounce the way you believe it should be.


Annika is the kind of name Britney Spears would select, if that validates your taste. Paris Hilton would go with Violet, I can assure you.
Reply:It's a good name, popular in Sweden as a diminutive of Anna (notables include golfer Annika Sorenstam and artist Annika Larsson). One of my Danish ancestors was named Anniche, which is the Danish spelling. When put together with Nicole, though, it makes me think of Anna Nicole Smith; many other people may make the same connection.
Reply:I like Annika violet,


Annika Nicole kinda sounds weird because people Might call her Anna Nicole,


like Anna Nicole Smith,


YIKES!
Reply:I love the name! It's very pretty, and fresher sounding than Annabelle or just Anna.I say it as ANN-ih-kah, with the 'ih' sounding like the "i' in Nicole.





I much prefer Annika Violet. Annika Nicole does have a snappy rhythm, but Nicole sounds tired and becoming a filler middle name. If Nicole has meaning for you, I would choose it. However, if there is no significance to Violet or Nicole, I prefer the soft, fluid feel of Annika Violet.
Reply:I say this with all do respect, but I do not think I would have been able to pronounce that in the way you wish. My initial guess was Ann-ick-ah, clearly not what you were going for. I am not a huge fan of the name myself, I do not know why but it makes me think of Star Wars, even though I've never watched a full movie. Perhaps using one of your middle name ideas for the first name might be a better choice? Best of luck
Reply:I like that name it's different and I would choose nicole as the middle name
Reply:Annika Nicole sounds better.
Reply:An-ni-ka. Annika Brionne
Reply:Annika Nicole is really cute. Would she go by Anne or Annie for short?
Reply:I love that name! Annika is very pretty.





I like Annika Nicole best.








I would pronounce it Anne- Nih- Kah. It's lovely.
