Cateria is of Latin origin, meaning "pure" or "chaste". It was brought to England by early settlers and later spread to other countries like France and Germany. Despite its Latin roots, Cateria has a distinctively English sound and feel. The name gained popularity in the Middle Ages but has since become quite rare. There is no modern equivalent of this name, making it unique and uncommon.
