Anniston is a modern American given name, likely created by blending the name Ann with the common English place-name suffix ‘-ston’, meaning ‘town’ or ‘settlement’. The name does not have a traditional etymology or established meaning, and its use as a given name is a recent phenomenon. While it resembles the surname Aniston, as in actress Jennifer Aniston, Anniston as a first name is unrelated to her and is not derived from her surname.
