Marykatherine is a unique, compound female given name of Irish origin. It consists of two distinct elements: 'Mary', which is derived from the Hebrew name Miriam and means 'sea of bitterness' or 'rebelliousness', and 'Katherine', stemming from the Greek name Aikaterine, translating to 'pure'. The combination of these two names creates a distinctive moniker that has gained some popularity in recent years. Spelling variations include Marykatherin, Marycatherine, and Mary-Katherine.
"The name Marykatherine saw a significant increase in popularity between the late 1970s and mid-1990s, peaking at 34 births in 1994. However, it has since declined, with recent years seeing only single-digit births."
