Meaning & History
Possibly an invented name, a combination of Catherine and Victoria. Also compare Latori and Natori.Note, many baby name sites and books list this name as meaning 'spirit' in Hopi, but this is incorrect. There is no word for 'spirit' in any Native American language that corresponds to Catori. (Similarly, Kotori is commonly listed as meaning 'screech owl spirit' in Hopi, according to Native Languages of the Americas; they comment: 'Clearly some baby book author made a typo at some point and no one bothered to check it before repeating it, because the Hopi word for screech owl is tokori, not kotori.')
