I love the nickname [name]katie [/name]/ [name]catie [/name], aside from [name]catherine [/name]…what others nam… A person that can legally change their name wants to be known as [name_f]kate[/name_f]. It can be hit or miss in this category.
As part of this, i want to change my middle name, katherine, to something that reads more masculine. Usually it’s a nickname for katherine/kaitlin/kathleen (i’m a [name_f]katherine [/name_f] myself!) i wouldn’t consider it dated by any means, but i’m. Hard to find an original combo that is not too old fashioned or stereotypical.
I would like her sister to have an equally formal name and an equally cute nickname. Kit is my favorite nickname for catherine but catherine is definitely my favorite spelling. I’m attached to the name, as it is a family name, and want to continue to honor it. If you use the name [name]kate [/name] (prefer [name]kate [/name] to [name]katherine [/name], [name]katie [/name], [name]katelin [/name], etc) i think that you should use a 2 syllable mn or perhaps a 3 syllable.
[name_m]hi[/name_m] everyone, i’m talking hypothetically here, but here’s the following scenario. My sister [name]kate [/name] was called (and still called by some) by her first and middle name a lot by family members. Have our boys name but definitely no girls names set yet. Would [name]catherine[/name] nn [name]erin[/name] work?
I also work with young children and i’ve met a few toddler katie’s. Does it make sense to use the nickname kit for catherine or does it only make sense to spell it katherine? (also, putting in a vote for [name_f]stephanie [/name_f], since that’s my name ) I was born in the 00s and i grew up with a handful of other katie’s.
I’m transgender and plan to change my name in the future. I’ve seen a few names around, kieran (which i like and may use, but i don’t like the pronunciation much), kit,. I used to prefer [name_f]katie [/name_f], but i’ve been crushing on [name_f]katy [/name_f] lately. Not sure if it’s weird to spell it catherine instead of katherine if using the nickname kit.
I like double first names for girls, well some, that is. As a [name_f]katie [/name_f], i feel i absolutely need to weigh in on this! A cute one i’ve heard is “[name]anna[/name] [name]leigh[/name].” but i can’t use that obviously. She loves the name [name_f]kate[/name_f], but wonders if she should put [name_f]katherine[/name_f] on the birth certificate, as she also loves.
We will call her [name]katie [/name].
