Behind the Name: Comments for the name Katlyn

Comments for KATLYN:

I think this is a horrible spelling. It looks as if it should be pronounced Kat-lynn, not Kate-lynn.

This name is pronounced KAT-lin. KAT is like "cat" not "Cate".

This is the way my name is spelled, and I pronounce it Kate-lyn. I definitely agree that it's a stupid way to spell it, especially when people always mispronounce it!

Caitlin says "AAAARGH!"

In my opinion, trendy spellings like this are tacky and cutesy. And you come across as uneducated. Just my opinion.

Ok. First off it is pronounced like KATE-lyn, and second of all, people have an easier time spelling this than my nickname, Katy.

I think this name is nice. It's modern, and a lot of modern names don't make sense (as some people have complained). But, it's a beautiful name.
