I’ve always been a fan of [name_f]Cat[/name_f]/[name_f]Kat[/name_f] over [name_f]Catie[/name_f]/[name_f]Katie[/name_f]. [name_f]Cat[/name_f] just feels cooler to me. I’ve known millions of Caties/Katies, but the few women I’ve met who called themselves [name_f]Cat[/name_f] really stand out in my mind.
I love love love the name [name_f]Katie[/name_f] so hands down [name_f]Catie[/name_f]! It looks really cute with the C :). To me [name_f]Cat[/name_f] sounds incredibly dated.
[name_f]Cate[/name_f]/[name_f]Cat[/name_f] are my favorites, but I do also like [name_u]Kit[/name_u] (though I think it makes more sense for the [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] spelling)
[name_f]Cate[/name_f] would be my favourite, followed by [name_u]Kit[/name_u]. Between [name_f]Catie[/name_f] and [name_f]Cat[/name_f], I’d go with [name_f]Cat[/name_f]. I think it sounds really cool.
