Proper name [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /he.ká.tɛː/, /eˈka.ti/, /eˈka.ti/, /he.ká.tɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /(h)eˈka.te̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /eˈka.ti/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /eˈka.ti/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /eˈka.ti/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Possibly the feminine equivalent of Ἑκατός (Hekatós) or ἑκάεργος (hekáergos), an obscure epithet of Apollo, derived from ἑκάς (hekás, “far away”), variously interpreted as "one who works/operates from afar," "one who drives off," "the far reaching one" or "the far-darter." Apollo was the twin brother of Artemis, who was very closely associated (and sometimes conflated) with Hekate. Or possibly from an Anatolian language.
