Catalotoan is one of 29 barangays or villages in the municipality of San Jose, Camarines Sur in the Philippines.^[1]

Etymology[]

The old folks recalled that there were many "taloto" trees that grew in the place. The word "Catalotoan" was derived from the combination of the word "ca-" which is a prefix, "taloto" trees, and "-an" which is a suffix in the Bicol language which both "ca-" and "-an" mean full or plenty. Thus, the name was adapted according to the circumstance that existed before when taloto trees were still abundant in the place.^[2]
