Islamic naming guidance
Draft: not yet reviewed by a scholar. This is not a fatwa.
Good meaning, nothing against it in the sources
Iberian form of Agnes, best known as the name of the martyr Saint Agnes of Rome, so it is counted as a name of another religion. The meaning (pure, holy) is not doctrinal and the name is widely used by Muslim families, so this is a low-confidence call for a scholar.
Confidence: low
