Kittie Origin and Meaning

The name Kittie is a girl's name.

Kittie is a diminutive form of Katherine or Catherine, originating from Greek roots meaning 'pure.' As a nickname-turned-independent name, Kittie emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when pet forms of names were commonly used as given names. Its playful, affectionate quality made it modestly popular during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, particularly in English-speaking countries. The name has declined in use since the mid-20th century, with many parents now preferring either the full Katherine/Catherine or other diminutives like Kate or Katie. Kittie also naturally evokes feline associations, which can add to its sweet, gentle character.
