There are at least 3 saints named Thecla. All were early martyrs who were never canonized because the process was not in place at the time. They were declared as saints by the early Christian community based on their martyrdom. The Orthodox Church did not exist at the time so they would have been recognized by the early Catholics. After the Orthodox Church split from from the Catholics, they continued to honor these early saints.
