Linguistic explanation and meaning

Detailed etymology (in Slovak)

Panna je osamostatnená maďarská domácka podoba mena Anna, vzniknutá rýmovaným spojením Anna-Panna. Základné meno Anna pochádza z hebrejského Channá, ktorého význam sa vykladá ako „milosť, priazeň“. Hebrejský je teda etymologický základ, maďarská je tvorba podoby Panna. Meno sa etymologicky neodvodzuje od slovenského všeobecného podstatného mena panna.
