History & Origin
Annet is a shortened spelling of Annette, the little French form of Anne, which itself comes from the Hebrew Hannah, 'grace.' Annet is also the everyday form of the name in Dutch and among some European families, so it is at once a trimmed spelling and a heritage form. The meaning of grace stays with it.
Annet was never common in the United States, given to only about twenty girls a year at its faint peak around 2003, a spare form beside the fuller Annette. A girl named Annet then is in her early twenties today.
