The word Catholic is derived from the Latin catholicusmeaning universal from the Greek katholikos which also referred to universal. As Catholic Answers points out the Greek word is from the two root words kata = "according to "and holos "the whole". The first use we have in a surviving writing of the word being used to refer to the Church founded by Jesus Christ, is from the end of the first century by St. Ignatius of Antioch in his Letter to the Smyrneans 8:2 [approximately A.D. 110]
