About the Name Aanan
Aanan corresponds to Sanskrit ānana (आनन), meaning face or mouth. This is a different word from ānanda (आनन्द), meaning joy or bliss.
The additional consonants in Ananda matter. If a family intends Aanan as a personal shortening of Anand, that is a naming choice rather than the dictionary meaning of ānana. Keeping the original spelling helps avoid this confusion.
Reference: Cappeller Sanskrit-English Dictionary, ānana and ānanda.
