History & Origin

Kattina is a spelling of Katina or a shortened Katrina, both diminutives in the Katherine group. Its inherited meaning comes from that group's Greek source and the traditional gloss 'pure,' and the extra t is a stylistic touch rather than a new root.

Kattina surfaced for essentially one year, given to only about fifteen girls around 1972 before fading. A girl named Kattina then would be in her early fifties today, marking it a brief early-seventies variant of a familiar name.

Did you know? Katina, the short form behind Kattina, became familiar in mid-century America partly through Greek-American families keeping the diminutive as a given name in its own right.
