Agnus is a distinctive and unique given name of Latin origin, meaning 'lamb'. It is derived from the Latin word 'agnus', which itself comes from the Proto-Indo-European root '*h₂egʷ-', signifying 'to lead'. This name has been historically associated with Christianity due to its connection with the Agnus Dei, a symbol of Christ as the Lamb of God. However, Agnus is not limited by its religious connotations and can be chosen for its unique sound and meaning regardless of cultural or denominational background.
"Between 1915 and 1930, there were ten babies named Agnus."
