Agafiya (
Russian: Ага́фия) is a Russian Christian female
first name.[1] Its colloquial forms are Agafya (Ага́фья; which can also be the main form of a
related name) and Ogafya (Ога́фья).[1] Like its traditional
English form
Agatha, it is derived from the
Greek word meaning good, kind, noble.[1][2]
Agafa can also be a variant of the name Agafiya.[3]
