Kassia or Kassiani (805/810 - before 865) was an Eastern Roman abbess, poet, composer, and hymnographer. She is one of the first medieval composers whose scores are both extant and able to be interpreted by modern scholars and musicians. Kassia is notable as one of only two Eastern Roman women known to have written in their own names during the Middle Ages, the other being Anna Comnena.

I have no historic proof of this meaning. From a story told to me in Scotland by a very old Gentleman, a MacGregor in fact. The story was translated from Gaelic to English on the fly. Mr. MacGregor said that the story could not be properly told in English, the name Kassia was not translated and was the main female character in the story.Kassia (KA-See-Ah) Means "Beauty of Starlight", or Un-corruptable. This is my eldest daughters' name. And she is as beautiful as star-light.
