No, don't assume "it's just a middle name". Whether an adult's middle name is recorded would depend on the incumbent, what he asked or whether he knew the person concerned. Unless or until you know who Anne's mother was and whether or unless you know she had a father, there's no way of knowing the significance of her middle name.
