Does anyone know what the Spanish or Portuguese name Engracia means? It's looks like it's related to Gracia but where does the En- come from?

Engracia comes from the Latin in gratia (Domini), "in God's grace", understood as "the one who is in God's grace".

Thanks. I thought that's what it might mean.
