[Opinions] *confused* But I thought
in reply to a message by Chrisell
it was a combination of Anneliese and Louisa, only just a really scrambled version of Anneliese. I mean, I see the sh, but could that be a variant pronunciation?

but Anneliese is already
a combo of two names. So tacking on Louisa makes it 3.

It's possible, I suppose . . . (edited)
I've known a number of girls named Aleasha, Aleesha, Alisha etc as variants of Alicia, so that's what stood out to me. And I've never heard anyone pronounce Anneliese as an-uh-LEASH. On the other hand, if someone Italian pronounced Annelise without transliterating it as Annalisa, they might say it an-eh-LEE-sheh.
Edit: now I'm second-guessing my Italian pronunciation, and my Italian books are at home. I could be wrong!
It's possible!
My argument still stands though :-P Anneliese is a combination name already, so it'd be mashing Anne, Liese and Louisa together.

Belay that . . .
I was getting the rules for 's' and 'c' mixed up. If it was Annelice it would be an-eh-LEE-cheh, but it doesn't work quite the same way for 's' into 'sh'. It's been a long time since I studied Italian!
