I prefer [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f], but from your list [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f] looks the best.

I am sorry to say but none. I teach and if I never meet another [name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] (etc.) it will be too soon.

I still like [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] and [name_f]Katharine[/name_f], as well as [name_f]Kitty[/name_f] and [name_f]Kyra[/name_f] and [name_f]Keziah[/name_f], but beyond those, K seems problematic to me.

4

Of those, [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f]. I’m another who would prefer the [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f] spelling.

5

One more vote for [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f] but [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f] is my choice from your 3.

6

I think of these variations, I prefer [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f]. However, if K- you are after, might I suggest [name_f]Kaitlin[/name_f]? Personally, I do prefer I’s to Y’s in most names.

7

[name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f] looks the best imo.

8

I also prefer [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f] or even [name_f]Kaitlin[/name_f] … but from your list I like [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f] best.

9

I vote [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f]. the extra n in [name_f]Kaitlynn[/name_f] just seems unnecessary and will just cause confusion. I have a friend who spells it [name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] and she always complains about misspellings of her name and how irritating it is to her

10

[name_f]Caitlin[/name_f]! Random K’s are too Kardashian.

11

I prefer [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f] as well. To be honest, I don’t perceive much of a difference in any of the three spellings listed, as they don’t affect pronunciation. You could pick at random and any or all would get the reader to the same destination. If you really must have the K, then Kaitlin. The lyn(n) endings are everywhere, particularly with the double Y.

12

Same here. Another vote for [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f]. Congrats!

13

I also prefer [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f], or at least [name_f]Kaitlin[/name_f], but think [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f] is best from your list. [name_m]Just[/name_m] know that it will rarely, if ever, be spelled correctly.

14

This is my opinion as well! :slight_smile:

15

I only really like [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f]. [name_f]Kaitlin[/name_f] isn’t bad… I will vote for [name_f]Kaitlyn[/name_f].
