Katie-Ann

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Katie-Ann: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2005.

Katie-Ann is a modern double-barrelled name, blending the Scottish and English diminutive Katie—itself a pet form of Katherine, from the Greek *katharos* meaning "pure"—with Ann, the English form of Hebrew Hannah, meaning "grace" or "favour." While no widely known historical figure bears the exact hyphenated form, the separate components have famous bearers: Katie Holmes, actress, and Ann Patchett, celebrated author. Place connections are indirect—St. Catherine's or Santa Caterina locations echo the root of Katie, while Ann shares its root with the biblical Hannah. Katie-Ann has become a popular choice in Scotland since the late 20th century, reflecting a trend for pairing familiar, classic names into fresh, feminine combinations
