How to Pronounce Anabeth
Pronounced AN-uh-beth /ˈænəbɛθ/High
Meaning: Anabeth is a compound of two familiar pieces: Ana, a form of Hannah meaning 'grace' or 'favour', and Beth, the everyday short form of Elizabeth, from the Hebrew for 'God is my oath' or 'pledged to God'. Joined together they make a soft double name that reads a little like a Southern honorific, in the mould of Annabelle or Sarabeth. The meaning fairly reflects both parts: grace joined to a promise to God.Medium

History & Origin
Anabeth is a modern blended name in the style of Sarabeth and Annalise, welding Ana, a form of Hannah meaning 'grace', to Beth, the short form of Elizabeth. Double names of this warm, two-part kind have long been popular in the American South, and Anabeth reads as a fresh member of that family rather than a single ancient name.
Anabeth has stayed an uncommon choice, drawing only a couple dozen girls a year even at its high in the early twenty-tens. A girl given it is still young, from the cohort when soft blended and vintage-flavoured names were rising together. It fits neatly beside the current revival of gentle, old-fashioned girls' names without ever having been common.
