We report on the spectroscopic confirmation of four recent optical nova candidates in M31 using the 2.2 m telescope and the Calar Alto Faint Object Spectrograph CAFOS at CAHA on Calar Alto, Spain. The spectra covered the range 400-850 nm (G-200), 490-780 nm (G-100) and 320-580 nm (B-100). The outburst of the apparent nova M31N 2006-06a (RA=00:43:11.81, dec= +41:13:44.7 (J2000)) occurred between May 12 and May 22, 2006 with an R band magnitude of 17.6 and white light magnitude of 18.0 at maximum (ATel #821, http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/CBAT_M31.html , and ATel #844).
