Its -nelly ending also echoes the pan-European saint’s name Agnes (Greek hagnos "pure, chaste"), linking it to a long tradition of names signifying innocence and virtue.

As a given name, Agnelly surfaces only sporadically in contemporary records and is typically used for girls; the root survives widely as a surname in Italy. Close variants and relatives include Agnelli, Agnella, and Agnello; cognates from the Agnes family are Agnese (Italian), Agnès (French), Agnes (English), Inés/Inez (Spanish), and Agnieszka (Polish).

Meanings most often ascribed are "lamb" and, by association with Agnes, "pure," making Agnelly a distinctive choice that balances modern flair with venerable symbolism.
