Kitti

Kitti is a feminine name generally considered a variant spelling of Kitty, which originated as a diminutive form of Katherine or Catherine. The name Katherine derives from the Greek name Aikaterine, whose meaning is debated but possibly relates to the Greek word 'katharos' meaning "pure." Kitti offers a playful, fresh alternative spelling to the more traditional Kitty. With its distinctive 'i' ending, it carries a slightly more modern or international flair. While never having achieved widespread popularity in rankings, Kitti appeals to parents seeking a cute, approachable name with familiar sounds but unique presentation. Its association with felines also gives it a gentle, warm quality that many find appealing.

Pronounced KIT-ee.

As of October 2026, Kitti ranked #8936 in US births in 1971 SSA, peaked at #3639 in 1958.
