Agnija

Agnija is a Latvian and Lithuanian feminine name derived from the ancient Greek name Hagne, rooted in the Greek word hagnos, meaning pure or chaste. It entered the Baltic naming tradition largely through the veneration of Saint Agnes of Rome, a early Christian martyr whose name became widely adopted across Europe. The name is closely related to Agnes, Agnieszka, Agnese, and Inés, all of which share the same Greek origin.
