Re: Caitlin
in reply to a message by Lily
It's still used rather excessively. When I looked through spellings for BC the past few years and totalled them, it was still excessively high. It's become extremely boring. Not a fan of Cate/Cait names w/ a C at all- nor w/ the "ai"... though Caitlin and Caitlyn are somewhat tolerable since that's where the original came from. Honestly, the only spellings I particularly like are Katelyn and Katelynn... and maybe Kate-lynn. Catherine's ok w/ a C, but that tends to be shortened to Cat or Cathy/Cathie instead much of the time. Cate just somehow looks unnatural to me.
Cateline just looks to me like a Jpns. person butchered the spelling of Catherine.
