ananassa

Ananassa is a term that appears sporadically in text and does not have a widely recognized definition in English-language reference works. In onomastics, Ananassa has occasionally been used as a feminine given name in Greek-speaking contexts. The name is sometimes described as derived from or associated with the word for pineapple, ananas, though there is no widely cited linguistic source establishing a direct etymology.

In other uses, Ananassa has not been established as an official name for a place, species, organization,
