[Opinions] Pronunciation question and a 'what's your fave spelling of...'
How would you pronounce Cateline?I intend to use it for a character. I always really liked Caitlin and some time ago was asked how I would spell it if I couldn't spell it Caitlin and Cateline came to mind. So I always pronounced it KATE-linn. Now that I'm using it for a character I thought about whether I like it better as KATE-linn or with the ending said as -leen. Or the French way which would be kah-teh-LEEN (very very short -teh, kind of I'm not good at explaining pronunciations). I've never heard it used in France though. But that might be too complicated. KATE-leen instead? KATE-line sounds pretty weird. The good thing is it so uncommon that I could probably choose a pronunciation. Or would people just say it like Caitlin? I like that too.I really love Caitlin but it's too common. Do you like it? How many do you know and how do they spell it?What's your favorite spelling of Caitlin?
