Anna Komnene Angelina or Comnena Angelina (Greek: Άννα Κομνηνή Αγγελίνα; c. 1176 – 1212) (not to be confused with Anna Komnene) was Empress consort of Nicaea.^[1] She was the daughter of emperor Alexios III Angelos and of Euphrosyne Doukaina Kamatera.^[2]

Her first marriage was to the sebastokratōr Isaac Komnenos Vatatzes, a great-nephew of the emperor Manuel I Komnenos.^[3]^[4]^[5] They had one daughter, Theodora Angelina. Soon after Anna's father became emperor, in 1195, Isaac Komnenos was dispatched to combat the Uprising of Asen and Peter. He was captured, became a pawn between rival Bulgarian and Vlach factions, and died while imprisoned.^[6]^[7]

Her second marriage to Theodore Laskaris, future emperor of Nicaea, was celebrated in a double wedding in late 1199/early 1200 (the other couple was Anna's sister Irene and Alexios Palaiologos).^[8]^[9]^[10] In 1205, Theodore Laskaris became emperor of Nicaea.

Anna Angelina died in 1212.^[7]
