Katriana

US Popularity Rank: 27733

Origin: Greek

Meaning: Pure, clean, clear; Of Hecate

Katriana is a refined name for a little girl, hailing from the Greek term καθαρός, which means “pure,” “clean,” and “clear.” Katriana is a variant of Katrina, the anglicized form of the Irish name Caitríona and the Scottish Caitrìona. All of which traces back to the Greek moniker Αἰκατερίνη or Katherine. It could also derive from the Greek goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts, and necromancy, Hecate. A symbol of purity that may resonate with baby Katriana is the lotus flower, as it rises from the mud untainted. Or perhaps baby will ward away evil by channeling their inner goddess. Whatever path baby Katriana takes, they are sure to bring you genuine joy.
