What is the meaning of the name aggy ?

The baby name aggy is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈæɡi/ — "AG-ee".

aggy is in Origin.

Aggy is an English diminutive of Agnes and Agatha, long used in Britain and the Anglophone world. The y-ending spelling is an alternative to Aggie or Aggi. From Agnes (Greek hagnos), it conveys "pure" or "chaste"; from Agatha (Greek agathos), it means "good" or "kind." Today Aggy may stand alone as a light, informal given name, though it remains most common as a nickname.

The form appears in 18th- and 19th-century parish registers and early American records, sometimes recorded independently. Related variants include Aggie, Aggi, and the full forms Agnes and Agatha; wider cognates are Agnès, Inés/Inez, Agnese, Agnieszka, Agneta for Agnes, and Agata, Agathe, Ágata for Agatha. Usage has been modest but persistent, and the name's meaning follows the chosen root - either "pure" (Agnes) or "good" (Agatha).
