Kaitleen
Kaitleen Origin and Meaning
Kaitleen is a feminine name that represents a modern variation of the popular name Caitlin. With Irish roots, the original Caitlin derives from the Irish form of Catherine, meaning "pure." The distinctive spelling with a 'K' and double 'e' adds a contemporary twist while maintaining the melodic sound of the traditional form. Though less common than Caitlin, Kaitlyn, or Katelyn, Kaitleen offers a unique alternative that still feels familiar. The name gained modest visibility in the late 20th century but remains relatively uncommon, making it an appealing choice for parents seeking something recognizable yet distinctive for their daughters.
