Agnes? vs. Need vs. Help

Hubby’s grandmother’s name was Agnes Maureen, they were very close and she recently passed so in memory we want to name our baby girl after her. However, I don’t really like the name. So, if anybody can think of any names that are similar but much prettier than Agnes or Maureen I would appreciate it.

Its not really my style. Myabe if she had a very feminine first name and then Agnes or Maureen for a middle name.

What was his grandma’s maiden name?

Inez is a variant of Agnes. Or maybe Maura for Maureen would work? And Maureen is related to Mary. So any form of Marymight work. Perhaps Maura?

Oops... I suggested Maura twice. But you get the idea....

Nessa is a diminutive of Agnes. There’s also Inez, which is a form of Agnes.

Annette is a variant. Using it with the nn Annie would be cute. You could also use a name that means pure, as Agnes does, like Caitlin or Kathleen. Or, you could use her initials.

Alice Maren

Maren/Marin have the same meaning as Maureen. Star of the sea.

Cady, Catherine, and Wynne mean fair/pure, like Agnes. You could also take it literally, and name her Honor Maureen/Agnes.

Edda means grandmother. You could use a variant, Addi, Etta, or Ads. You could do Addi Carts. Grandmother love.

Sorry, this is getting WAYYYY off track....it will take you 2 weeks to explain HOW the name is related to his g-maw.....Aggie Mae.

Off track? Really? How about this. We chose Cady Marin, because it has the same meaning as his grandmother’s name. How is that off track??? She may not like Aggie....
