Origin:Greek
Meaning:Pure
Kath is Katherine's short form, which, in turn, comes from the Greek word katharos, meaning "pure." This angelic female name is rooted deep in ancient Greece and takes inspiration from Aikaterine, a martyred saint from Alexandria. A modern take on a classic, comedian Kath Hughes took that expression literally with her four-person sketch comedy group drawing comparisons to The League of Gentlemen. Kath also appeared in the Ricky Gervais comedy/drama After Life, which shows that the true mission in life is being pure and helping others. Baby Kath will show you the meaning of pure joy in its purest form.
