There are so many names that come from the timeless classic Katherine. But if you’re hoping to kick things up a notch, then perhaps consider Kotryna, a name for girls most common in Lithuania. Like Katherine, it originates from Greek and gets its simple yet saintly meaning of “pure” from the word katharos. Lithuanian Olympic swimmer Kotryna Teterevkova tops the list of world-famous Kotrynas.
