Banks used to have a person called a Cashier who was responsible to uphold the bank's commitments. When we give a Cashier's Check today it is an instrument that assures the recipient of payment by the bank of a set amount. A form is usually used and the name of the "cashier" is printed on the form.
If given a personal check, the recipient is at risk as there may be insufficient funds to pay. A Cashier's Check is secure as the money from the origianl payer is taken by the bank in exchange for its check made out to the payee. Apparently banks still have a better reputation than a stranger.

A "cashier's check" is a check issued by a bank directly. To get one, you go to your bank, give them the money and who it should be made out to. They take your money and issue a check for you. It's considered a more reliable way of paying for things because the bank is pretty much guaranteed to have the funds to cover the check.

It is a check that you may only get from a bank with cash. It is a check that the bank will give you to purchase something with guaranteed funds. For example, these are the only types of checks realty company's except.
