Does anyone know where the name El Catalá comes from?

El Català (note the direction of the accent) means the "Catalan" language in Catalan.

Couldn't it also mean "The Catalonian"?

Buck, the hybridizer of this rose, was a long time correspondent with the great Spanish rose grower, who inspired him to take on rose cultivation when Buck was in his teens. So a lot of Buck's roses have Spanish names in honor of that relationship.
