: Thanks Joanna and Kiwi!
: Could "agein" possibly translate into "saints" at all? As in the plural of "agios"?

You're welcome Merimou. I'm not sure if 'agein' could be the plural for agios (saint). In modern greek the plural is "agioi" pronounced: agi-i (since 'oi' is just an 'i' but is the written plural suffix for the singular 'os'). However I'm not sure if it could be a classical greek version for 'saints'. Sorry I can't help with that.
