The transition from the Hebrew Ḥannâ to the Spanish Ana involves a loss of the original aspirated 'h' sound through Greek and Latin intermediaries.
Because it is such a short and common name, many Spanish-speaking cultures use 'Anita' as a common diminutive to express affection.
In some Spanish-speaking regions, particularly in parts of Latin America, the name can be doubled to 'Ana María' or 'Ana Lucía' to create a single, inseparable compound name.
