Katee Origin and Meaning

The name Katee is a girl's name.

Katee is a feminine name that functions as a modern spelling variation of Katie, the familiar diminutive of Katherine. This contemporary spelling gained some visibility in the early 2000s, partly through actress Katee Sackhoff. The name Katherine itself derives from the Greek 'Aikaterine,' with debated meanings including 'pure' and 'each of the two.' Katee offers a youthful, approachable quality while the distinctive spelling gives it a modern edge. Though less common than Katie or Kate, this variation appeals to parents seeking a familiar-sounding name with a unique written form. Katee maintains the friendly, unpretentious charm of Katie while standing out on paper.
