Inessa

I am absolutely in love with this name. If I ever have a daughter I would love to name her Inessa. My mum's name is Agnieszka, and I was looking through names of the same root to potentially name a character (or child, if or when the time comes). I've never been a fan of the names Agnes or Ines, Agnes because it feels a little too old-fashined even in my opinion, and I love older, classical names and Ines is pretty, but it never wowed me either. Inessa on the other hand? I fell in love. It's just so pretty sounding, and since it shares the same root as my mum's name, even though I'm neither Ukrainian nor Russian, I knew this name was the one for a daughter.
