The city was named after Saint Thecla, a saint of the early Christian Church and a reported follower of Paul of Tarsus in the 1st century AD. She is not mentioned in the New Testament, but the earliest record of her comes from the apocryphal Acts of Paul and Thecla, probably composed in the early 2nd century.

Santa Tecla is situated at the southern foot of the San Salvador Volcano and is a part of the San Salvador metropolitan area. The municipality of Antiguo Cuscatlán sits on its eastern border.
