The story of Annmarie
Catholic Europe joined Ann and Marie constantly — Anne is Mary's mother in tradition, so the compound names both in one — and German, French and Irish families all made the pairing. Miriam's own meaning has defeated two millennia of scholarship. Annmarie appears in American records in current use.

Line the two peaks up, and Althea's path sketches the road Annmarie is walking now.
