I'm gonna cry if someone seriously needs an explanation as to why this name dropped like a fly after 2005.
The name Katrina was given to 131 girls born in the US in 2020.
Also used in Estonia: https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katrina_(eesnimi)
I named my diary Katrina growing up because I thought it was the most beautiful name for a friend. I also wanted the Katrina Ballerina doll growing up. I later named my daughter Katrina in 1990. I found meanings that mean "Dear to my heart" and "pure one." It is also a derivative of Kathleen which is my legal first name. I think it is timeless and feminine and a beautiful name. We also use the nickname Trina some of the time.
More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Katrina are female.
Also Finnish and Lithuanian.
It is also rarely used as Greek short of Katerina (Κατρινα)
The name Katrina was given to 215 girls born in the US in 2015.
The name declined in popularity quickly after 2005, possibly because of a devastating hurricane that was given the name Katrina.
Katrina was used a lot more in the 1980's, probably due to the music group Katrina and the Waves.
Association with the hurricane will have put people off naming their daughters Katrina for a long time. But in about 15 years everybody will have moved on, and the name will be back in use. Why do hurricanes have names anyway?
