History & Origin

Kellyanne is a compound name marrying Kelly, from an Irish surname, to Anne, from the Hebrew Hannah, 'grace.' Written solid rather than hyphenated, it belongs to the mid-century fashion for run-together double names like Maryanne and Julieanne.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year from the early nineteen-sixties on, with light use continuing in recent decades. A girl named Kellyanne at its high point would be in her thirties now.

Did you know? Kellyanne fuses two names into one: Irish Kelly and the ever-classic Anne, a formula that gave us Maryanne and Rosanne as well.
