Detailed etymology (in Slovak)
Ženská podoba mena Ignác, utvorená z latinského mena Ignatius. To vzniklo zo starorímskeho rodového mena Egnatius, ktorého pôvod a význam nie sú spoľahlivo objasnené; pokladá sa za predlatinské, azda etruské. Podoba Ignatius bola druhotne ovplyvnená latinským slovom ignis (oheň), z čoho pochádza tradičný výklad „ohnivá“ alebo „horlivá“.
