The Meaning of Lila by John Forgetta and L.A. Rose for October 09, 2009

If you include the Annes and Annas too, you could crank out a serious list!

Yeah, like Anna Komnene, Byzantine historian!

… What? She’s the first inspirational Anna I could think of. I like history.

Anna of Cleves…

….oh wait.

Anyway, poor little orphan Annie. At least she has pupils, tho.

…I have always loved Lila..

You gotta give Lila points for trying!

Annie just seems a boring name to me. Elizabeth is a lot better. It’s better to choose a name for yourself that you do like rather than going through life with a boring name your parents gave you unless you really like it.

Macushlalondra, my grandmother’s name was Anne Elizabeth. Oddly enough, she went by Patsy.

Anna Steele is this really awesome girl I went to Collge with. She is named Anna.

I practically snorted my bearclaw when I read Toaster Oven’s inspirational Annie. Too funny.

annie southern little orphan annie, annie of a thousand days annie mame annie up ann-nother bearclaw……

annie body want me to shutup?

Keep going. I’m bored at work. Happy Friday, everyone! Have a great weekend.

Anne Frank was my first thought – I couldn’t think of any Annies!

Mama Taney, I have an Aunt Patsy but her real name is Patricia. I never understood why she went by Patsy rather than Patty or just Pat.
