Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno Agnesa má grécky pôvod sprostredkovaný latinskou podobou Agnes. Vychádza zo starogréckeho prídavného mena ἁγνή (hagnē), ženského tvaru prídavného mena ἁγνός (hagnos), s významom „čistá, cudná, nevinná“. Spojenie s latinským podstatným menom agnus („baránok“) vzniklo druhotne na základe zvukovej podobnosti a kresťanskej symboliky; ide o ľudovú etymológiu, nie o samostatný latinský pôvod mena.
