Ketter Origin and Meaning
The name Ketter is a girl's name.
Ketter is an unusual feminine name with possible Germanic origins. It may derive from the German surname Ketter, which has occupational roots related to chain-making (from "Kette" meaning "chain"). Alternatively, it could be a variant of Keturah, a biblical name meaning "incense" in Hebrew. As a first name, Ketter is extremely rare, with very few recorded usages in any country. The name has a crisp, strong sound with its decisive consonants, giving it a modern feel despite potential historical roots. The rarity of Ketter might appeal to parents seeking a truly distinctive name that remains straightforward to pronounce. Its unusual nature makes it stand out while still having a familiar sound pattern.
