I really like Agnes. I think Agnes Emily is pretty spectacular. Better than the two others. Emily is such a beautiful name, and Agnes kind of cancels out its popularity.

I prefer Agnessa to Agnes, but Agnes has grown on me a bit. I'm not really sold on the "ag" sound, but it's a decent name.

Agnes Eve is my favorite out of your combos followed by Agnes Emmeline.

I've successfully warmed to Agatha as a first name; haven't got there with Agnes yet, but I respect her. Nessie is nice as a nickname. I think your three combos all work nicely flow-wise; Agnes Emily is my favorite, closely followed by Agnes Emmeline.

Gag, gag, gag with with a spoon! Agnes is a name I never found attractive.

The nn Aggie is what has turned me off the name. I remember hearing it as a small child (family name) and thinking how unattractive it was. Nessie is much better, imo. Of the three combos listed, I like Anges Emmeline best even though I love Eve.

I love Agnes. It has an ugly-but-reliable feel that appeals to me, like a pair of clodhopper shoes that are worn in and comfortable.

I don't think it needs a nickname, and my favorite combo is Agnes Emily.

Agnes is quite retro cute right now! I think Agnes Emmeline has the best flow, but I do like Agnes Eve also.

I'm a huge fan of Agnes and Agatha. Agnes Emmeline is my favourite.

I don't really like it. I don't think it is soft - more nasally and harsh to my ears.
BUT it does have kind of a cool retro feel. I could see Agnes fit right in with Stella, Nora, Margaret. And I would much rather see an Agnes than a Brylyn or Skylee.

I like Agnes Emily and Agnes Eve.

Yes, it's the medieval feeling of Agnes that draws me in. That, and the fact that Agnes is so refreshingly unfrilly. My favorite form is Inez which, admittedly, has a completely different feeling than Agnes. Nessa / Nessie is an adorable nn for Agnes.

I adore Agnes!

Agnes Emily is delightfully dainty, and Agnes Emmeline and Agnes Eve are lovely as well.

I'm okay with Agnes, just as long as you don't use a nickname.

---

You could combine Agnes with Joy, Ruth, Jane, Danielle, and Irene.

I don't like Agnes. Besides that I think it's dated I don't like the sound.

---

Of your combos, Agnes Eve is the best by far. Eve sounds good with Agnes :)

I like Agnes, but I wouldn't pair it with a vowel mn. I too dislike Aggie and don't really like Nessie either, reminds me of the Loch Ness monster.
