In addition to Ash Monday, Clean Monday is known by other names among different groups of Eastern Christians. Pure Monday is the most common name; among Greek Catholics and Orthodox, Clean Monday is referred to by its Greek name, Kathari Deftera (just as Mardi Gras is simply French for "Fat Tuesday"). Among Eastern Christian on Cyprus, Clean Monday is called Green Monday, a reflection of the fact that Clean Monday has traditionally been regarded by Greek Christians as the first day of spring.
