The most important is apparently "fire". The name of Agni represents the general Vedic appellative for this phenomenon. In the case of Agamemnon his name seems to be motivated by the lost Greek equivalent of Vedic agní-, Latin ignis, Baltoslavic *ungni- "fire". Concerning the difference in the stem-formation, it is tempting to see in the Indo-Iranian+Latin+Balto-Slavic isogloss *H1Ngni- the original locative in *-i "in the fire", while the hypothetical pre-Greek counterpart *H1NgN could represent the suffixless locative (N = syllabic n).
