Ageyev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ageyev (Russian: Аге́ев; masculine) or Ageyeva (Аге́ева; feminine) is a Russian surname.[1] Variants of this surname include Aggeyev/Aggeyeva (Агге́ев/Агге́ева), Ageyenko (Аге́енко), Ageyenkov/Ageyenkova (Аге́енков/Аге́енкова), Ageykin/Ageykina (Аге́йкин/Аге́йкина), Agin/Agina (А́гин/А́гина), Agish (Аги́ш), Agishev/Agisheva (Аги́шев/Аги́шева), Agishin/Agishina (Аги́шин/Аги́шина), Agishchev/Agishcheva (Аги́щев/Аги́щева), Agushev/Agusheva (Агу́шев/Агу́шева), Ogiyenko (Огие́нко), and Ogishin/Ogishina (Оги́шин/Оги́шина).[1]

All these surnames derive from various forms of the Christian male given name (from the Biblical Hebrew word meaning festive), although it's also possible that the forms starting with "Agish-", "Agishch-", and "Agush-" were derived from the given name Agapy or Agafon.[1] The following people share this surname:
