Kat Name Details

Kat is a diminutive form of the name Katherine or Kathleen. Katherine is derived from the Greek name Aikaterine, which in turn has its roots in the name Hekaterine. The name Hekaterine was borne by a Greek goddess, possibly derived from the Greek word 'aikia' meaning 'torture'. Kat has been used as a nickname or shortened form for Katherine or Kathleen since at least the 18th century. It is a popular name choice for girls.
