Kajsa

Kajsa is a Swedish pet form of Katarina, which ultimately derives from the Greek name Aikaterine, whose meaning is debated but often associated with the Greek word katharos, meaning pure. It has been a familiar everyday name in Sweden for centuries and gained literary prominence through the character Kajsa Kavat, a spirited girl in Swedish children's stories. The name shares its roots with Katherine, Catherine, Katja, Kaja, and Katariina.
