FavoritesGreek
Nessie, a diminutive of Agnes, has Greek origins and means 'pure' or 'chaste'. It is linked to St. Agnes, a revered 3rd-century Christian martyr, whose legacy has inspired literature and religious devotion. Though Agnes waned in popularity after the Reformation, it experienced a revival in the 19th century, and Nessie retains a charming, vintage appeal.
