Meaning & origin
Annemarie is a compound name combining the enduring favorites Anne and Marie. First recorded in U.S. data in 1912, it reached its peak popularity in 1968. In 2025, it ranked 2933, with about 1 in 28,198 newborns receiving the name, reflecting a stable trajectory. The name has been most commonly used in Michigan, New York, and Texas. While never among the most popular names, Annemarie has maintained a consistent presence, appealing to families seeking a classic, elegant double name with European roots.
Annemarie is a combined form of the names Anne and Marie, widely used in German, Dutch, and Scandinavian countries. Anne derives from the Hebrew Hannah, meaning 'grace' or 'favor', while Marie is the French and Latin form of Mary, whose ultimate origin is uncertain but often linked to the Hebrew Miriam, possibly meaning 'beloved' or 'bitter'. The combination became popular as a double name in the 19th and 20th centuries, often written as a single word.
