I'm pretty sure there is only one Abigail in The Bible, and that is Nabal's wife. When David, the future king, went to ask Nabal for some food, because David had watched Nabal's servants in the wilderness, but Nabal blew them off (pardon the phrase; it's not literal). David was furious and swore to kill Nabal and everyone in his household. Abigail heard how cruel her husband had been, so she gathered food to take to David and his 600 men. David forgave Nabal and accepted Abigail's offering. Then, when ten days later God struck Nabal down, David took Abigail as his wife. (David had other wive, including Michael, Saul's daughter)
Hope it helped! God bless you.
