KATHERINE
Gender: Feminine
Usage: English
Pronounced: KATH-u-rin, KATH-rin
From the Greek name (Aikaterine). The etymology is debated: it could derive from the earlier Greek name (Hekaterine),
which came from (hekateros) "each of the two"; it could derive from the name of the goddess HECATE; it could be related
to Greek (aikia) "torture"; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning "my consecration of your name". The Romans associated
it with Greek (katharos) "pure" and changed their spelling from Katerina to Katharina to reflect this. The name belonged to a
4th-century saint and martyr from Alexandria who was tortured on the famous Catherine wheel. Another saint by this name
was Catherine of Siena, a 14th-century mystic. This name was also borne by two empresses of Russia, including Catherine
the Great, and by three of Henry VIII's wives.

The name of Katherine creates a friendly, sociable, charming nature, but causes you to be too easily influenced
by others. While you find it easy to meet and mix, and can appear agreeable and compromising in conversation,
you can become unbending and forceful if pressed too far. Others learn that you cannot be told what to do and
you seldom change your mind once it is made up. You prefer situations that allow a degree of independence,
but are reluctant to take on a demanding work-load or responsibility.

I was named after my maternal grandmother, Mary Katherine Case [b. 30 June 1909 - d. 15 January 2005].
