Etymology
First attested as catsop in 1361. Etymology nl 1. The element -op appears to refer to an elevated location. One etymology proposes a derivation from a compound of a first element cognate to li kaatsj slime, dreck and odt *apa river, stream; however, it is unclear which body of water this hypothetical compound would refer to.
