Meaning and origin of Annastasia
Annastasia is a Greek name that means “variant of Anastasia, "resurrection"”.
Annastasia is a variant spelling of Anastasia, from the Greek anastasis, resurrection. The doubled n reflects how the name is often heard as Anna plus -stasia, and it lets the familiar Anna stand out. Anastasia has a long Christian history through early saints, and it gained later fame through Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia, the youngest daughter of the last tsar, around whom many legends grew. It is said an-uh-STAY-zhuh or ah-nah-STAH-see-uh. Related forms include Anastasia, Nastya and Stacy. With Anna built into the spelling, the short form is already on the page.
