Caitline Origin and Meaning

The name Caitline is a girl's name.

Caitline is a feminine name that serves as a variation of the more common Caitlin, which itself derives from the Irish name Caitlín (Irish form of Catherine). The added 'e' at the end gives the name a distinctive spelling while maintaining the traditional pronunciation. Catherine, the root name, comes from the Greek name Aikaterine, meaning "pure." Caitline blends Irish heritage with contemporary styling, making it appealing to parents who appreciate Celtic names but want something slightly different. While not as frequently used as Caitlin, Kaitlyn, or other variants, Caitline offers a subtle uniqueness while still being recognizable and easy to pronounce.
