Kati Origin and Meaning

The name Kati is a girl's name.

Kati is a feminine name that functions as a diminutive form of Katherine or Katalin, particularly in Hungarian, Finnish, and Estonian cultures. Katherine ultimately derives from the Greek name Aikaterine, whose meaning remains debated but is possibly related to the Greek word "katharos" meaning "pure." Kati offers a short, sweet alternative to longer forms while maintaining the name's classic roots. The name has a friendly, approachable quality with its soft consonants and ending vowel sound. While particularly common in Eastern and Northern European countries, Kati has international appeal due to its simplicity and pleasant sound. The name conveys a youthful, unpretentious charm while still connecting to the rich historical tradition of its longer form.
