[Opinions] Re: Pronunciation question and a 'what's your fave spelling of...'
in reply to a message by Lily
I'd say kat-a-LEEN. Never would've thought to pronounce that like Caitlin.I like Caitlin. The name itself with all spellings counted is quite common, although I've never heard of one much younger than me (mid-20s). I think most Caitlins I know spell it Caitlyn. I know a few Kaitlyns too. Caitlin I don't think is the most common spelling, at least in my experience, and it's by far my favorite. So I think that makes it even more usable.

I really like kat-a-LEEN and KAT-a-leen at the moment so I think I will use one of them. Probably KAT-a-leen, it's a bit easier to say for most people.
Yeah, I know, it's just that I first thought of it as a spelling variant of Caitlin so I have that association :P
