Comments (Meaning / History Only)
I am very proud to be a true blue Caitlin, the Gaelic Catherine. I feel sorry for anyone who has contracted the name through false pretenses, I am sorry your parents were extremely uneducated. Caitlin IS the proper spelling and as many "Caitlin's" I know I am proud to say I am the only true one! I appreciate my heritage and am proud of it! Suck it Katelyn or Caitlyn or Catlyn or however your parents screwed it up, they should have done some research!

Hello, my name is Caitlin and because that's my name, I know the meaning. Caitlin (Kaitlin, Kaitlyn, etc.) means 'pure' and is the Irish variation of Catherine.

It's actually the Irish version of Kathleen. Catriona is the Irish version of Catherine.

Caitlin is NOT an Irish forename, it is in fact a Welsh forename for Catherine.

It's a Gaelic interpretation of Catherine, and it means "pure".
