History & Origin
Gerianne is a made compound of the mid-twentieth century, joining Geri — short for Geraldine, 'spear ruler' — to Anne, the enduring Hebrew name for 'grace'. Names of this shape were popular for their tidy two-in-one sound.
It was never common, cresting around 1952 and fading by the nineteen-nineties. It reads as a period -anne blend, most at home beside Julianne and Roseanne, and it has not been revived.
