A variation of Agnes, Nestah is a modern take on the historic name. A more common spelling of the name is Nesta—however, the added ‘H’ gives the title more strength. Deriving from the Greek term hagnos, Nestah holds the meaning “pure” and “chaste.” Readers of fantasy will recognize the name from Sarah J Maas’ bestselling series A Court of Thorns and Roses, in which Nesta overcomes trauma and shows incredible strength throughout the story.
