What is the meaning of the name Kasia ?

The baby name Kasia is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced {'phonetic': 'KAH-shah', 'IPA': '/ˈka.ɕa/'}.

Kasia is Polish in Origin.

Kasia is the Polish diminutive of Katarzyna, the local form of Catherine, ultimately from Greek Aikaterinē. Its etymology is disputed: medieval reinterpretation tied it to Greek katharos “pure,” the source of the widely accepted meaning, while alternative theories connect it to the goddess Hekátē or to a Coptic name. In Polish, Kasia is pronounced KAH-shah ([ˈkaɕa]).

Used chiefly as an affectionate short form at home, Kasia has also been recorded as an independent given name since the late twentieth century, especially in Poland and among Polish communities abroad, and it is readily recognized in English-speaking countries. Notable bearers include singer Kasia Kowalska and model Kasia Struss. Variants and cognates include Katarzyna; colloquial Polish forms Kaśka and the endearing Kasieńka/Kasiunia; and the wider Catherine family: Katherine, Catherine, Katarina, Katarína, Ekaterina, Ekaterini, Katia, and Katya.
