Bo-Katan was created primarily as a reason to give female fans more opportunities for armored cosplay. The source of Bo-Katan's name and pronunciation is explained by Clone Wars supervising director Dave Filoni on his Facebook page as being a portmanteau of the names of his wife and her pet cat. He further describes the pronunciation as sounding similar to Boca Raton.

In one of Dave Filoni's paintings of the character, Bo-Katan is shown with her helmet off displaying her shoulder-length red hair.
