Cathey is a feminine name that originated as a variant spelling of Cathy, which itself is a diminutive of Catherine. Dating back to Greek origins, the root name Catherine means 'pure.' Cathey emerged as an alternative spelling primarily in the United States during the mid-20th century when parents began experimenting with distinctive spellings of traditional names. This variant maintains the familiar sound of Cathy while offering a more unique written form. Cathey peaked in popularity in the 1950s and 1960s but has since declined in usage. Today, it's considered a vintage name that might appeal to parents seeking something familiar yet uncommon. The name carries a friendly, approachable quality with a touch of nostalgic charm.
