Ada Lovelace's only daughter was given the name Anne. Her full name was Anne Isabella King-Noel, and she was commonly known as Annabella or Lady Anne Blunt.
She was born in 1837, between Ada’s eldest child Byron and her younger son Ralph. The name Anne connected her to Ada’s mother, Anne Isabella Milbanke, later known as Lady Byron. Ada’s daughter therefore carried both her grandmother’s given names.
Anne married the explorer Wilfrid Scawen Blunt in 1869 and became a major figure in the history of Arabian horses. The couple traveled extensively in the Middle East and helped establish the Crabbet Arabian Stud in England, importing and breeding influential Arabian horses.
Readers sometimes mistake “Ada” for the daughter’s given name because Ada was her mother’s famous name. “Annabella” was also not a separate answer: it was the familiar form by which Anne Isabella was often known. Her later title, Lady Anne Blunt, came through marriage and aristocratic inheritance.
