I really like Annamaria, although I prefer Anamaria (it just looks cleaner or something). I'd use Anna/Ana as a nn, but I guess Nanna would work. I tend to only like nicnames that are actually in the name.

Ellinor is great. I might even like it better than Elinor, even though I usually don't like doube letters. It looks a bit regal that way, maybe...? Again, I usually only like nns that are in the name, so I don't really like Nelli. Also, Nelli and Ellinor give me completely different pictures, so they don't really seem like the same to me.

I really like them ;)

I like Annemarie and Eleonore (or Eleanor).

I admire Annamaria and prefer Elinor to Ellinor (though the latter's also charming).

I was thinking of Annamaria just yesterday because it would be the combination of several friends and relatives named Marie/Maria/Ann/Anna. It seems like a perfect name. Very feminine, but not needlessly frilly. Very lyrical in its pronunciation, too.

I really like Ellinor, too. I don't think there's a form of Eleanor that I don't love, really. Ellinor is a grand name.

As for the necknames, I'd prefer the nickname Nan, personally, but Nanna could work. The more I see it and say it, it's a bit sweet. Nelli would have to grow on me, and right now, Nell is the bee's knees for me. Nan and Nell would be wonderful sister names. :)
