sister who is stressed
My brother has quite an odd name. He is quite angry because he nver sees his name on stuffed bears, pencils or whatever. I would like to give him a knowledge of his name and asure him that his name is alright and that other people have that name also. His name is Katlin. Please help me.

Hi,
My 13 year old son is also named Catalin,(pronounced cat'-lin) I did it, as I have one son named Lance,
the second is Merlin and I wanted another unusual Irish name, and
I found it in a book of names. Cat loves his name, and cats, too.
Please tell Katlin to write to us!

Well there are mail order firms that will put any name you like on almost anything from pencils to towels maybe your family could look one up and get a few things for him
i personally have never heard of this name for a boy but my baby book lists a similar name Catalin i am not sure if the meaning is correct though as the book has been unrelible in the past it says -Catalin irish legend, the magic name of a wizard

hey! i would tell him that having a unique name isnt so bad. for instance i have the mn sloan.(imagine how hard that name is to find) tell him that having a unique name means that he could embrace(ok maybe not that term but..) his uniquness. i used to hate my name but then realized that having a unique name isnt so bad. personally i like his name i think it is interesting.
