Meaning and history

Katriona is a Scottish and English spelling variant of Catriona, the Scottish Gaelic form of Katherine. Katherine derives from Greek Aikaterine, whose original meaning is uncertain, although later association with katharos, “pure,” shaped its conventional interpretation. The form reflects Gaelic naming history but replaces the initial C with K. Notable bearers include Scottish broadcaster Katriona Shearer and British athlete Katriona Fairweather. Catrìona, with Gaelic diacritics, is a culturally traditional spelling.
