Catalina Artusi is an Argentine actress who is perhaps best known for her participation in the Telefé telenovela Chiquititas. Artusi's first acting experience came as "Catalina" in Verano del '98, in 1998. In Verano del '98 she participated alongside a number of other Chiquititas stars, including Agustina Cherri. The then nine-year-old actress gained a role in popular soap Chiquititas, during the show's fourth season in 1998.
I wonder if this name came from the Roman surname Catilina. It seems possible since this name is only very popular in countries of Latin-based languages.Lucius Sergius Catilina (108 BC – 62 BC) was a Roman Senator of the 1st century BC. He is best known for the Catilinarian conspiracy, an attempt to overthrow the Roman Republic.
I like this name because there is a character in 'Incantation' by Alice Hoffman called Catalina. The book is set in Spain and is about Spanish Jews hiding as Catholics. It's a very good book.
Queen Catherine of England née Catherine of Aragon (Castilian: Catalina de Aragón y Castilla) (December 16, 1485–January 7, 1536) was queen consort of England as Henry VIII of England's first wife. Henry tried to have their twenty-four year marriage annulled in part because all their male heirs apparently died in childhood, with only one of their six children, Princess Mary (later Queen Mary I) surviving as heir presumptive, at a time when there was no precedent for a woman on the throne. The Pope refused to allow the annulment of Henry's marriage to Catherine, which set off a chain reaction that led to Henry's break with the Roman Catholic Church and his subsequent marriage to Anne Boleyn in the hope of fathering a male heir to continue the Tudor dynasty.Born in Alcalá de Henares, Catherine was the youngest surviving child of Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. Her older siblings were Isabella, Princess of Asturias, John, Prince of Asturias, Joan I of Spain and Maria of Castile and Aragon, Queen of Portugal. She was an aunt, among others, of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, John III of Portugal and their wives, Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor and Henry I of Portugal.She was a granddaughter of both John II of Castile and John II of Aragon born in 1558. She was descended from the English royal house through both her great-great-grandmothers Katherine of Lancaster and Philippa of Lancaster, daughters of John of Gaunt. She was thus a third cousin of both Henry VII and his wife Elizabeth of York.
