Annajean is an uncommon, distinctive feminine given name of American origin. It consists of two parts: "Anna," which means "grace" in Hebrew, and "Jeane," a variant of the French name Jeanne, derived from the Hebrew name Yochanan meaning "God is gracious." The name Annajean is often associated with the American South due to its popularity among families of French Huguenot descent who settled there. It is believed that the name was particularly prevalent in Louisiana during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, it remains relatively rare but holds a unique charm, perhaps appealing to those seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their child.
The name Annajean has seen a resurgence since the year 2000, with the majority of births occurring during this period.
