'agname' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'agnomen,' where 'ag-' meant 'to' and 'nomen' meant 'name.'

'agnomen' transformed into the English word 'agname' and eventually became the modern English word 'agname.'

Initially, it meant 'additional name,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'a name or title given to a person, often reflecting a characteristic or achievement.'
