History & Origin

Anadalay is an obscure modern coinage whose meaning is not recorded; its most visible element is the classic Ana, to which a decorative ending has been added. It appears in United States records only briefly in the two-thousands.

It was never common, given to only about twenty girls a year in its short run in the mid two-thousands. With no documented root, it is best treated as a purely musical invention.

Did you know? The name has the melodic shape of a coined name, opening with the ever-popular Ana and trailing off in a soft, sung -alay.
