Annis Family History
Annis Name Meaning
English: from the Middle English female personal name Annes,
Old French Anes, vernacular form of Late Latin Agnes,
which is in turn an adaptation of the Greek name Hagne
‘pure’, ‘holy’. St. Agnes was a virgin martyr, one of those who
suffered under the persecutions of Diocletian in 303 ad. Her
name was associated by folk etymology with Latin agnus ‘lamb’,
and in medieval art she is often depicted with a lamb (the lamb of
God).
