Caitríona is a traditional Irish feminine name, the Irish Gaelic form of Katherine or Catherine. It derives ultimately from the Greek name 'Aikaterine,' though its exact original meaning remains debated, with theories including 'pure' or connections to the goddess Hecate. The name features the distinctive fada accent mark over the 'i' which indicates a long vowel sound in Irish. Pronounced approximately as 'kah-TREE-uh-nah,' it has been used in Ireland for centuries. Caitríona has moderate popularity in Ireland and among Irish diaspora communities but remains uncommon elsewhere. Notable bearers include Irish actress Caitríona Balfe. The name evokes Irish cultural heritage while offering the nickname options Cait, Caitrín, or Triona.
