My name is Caitlin, and my parents considered naming me Casey, but clearly ended up with Caitlin. Well there are five Caitlin's on my cheer team(of different spelling forms) and twelve in my grade. So I am starting to go by Casey. But how should it be spelled?
-Casey
-Caisey
-Caisie
-Caicee
-Kacie
-Kaycee
-Kaicee

Thanks! <3

My boyfriend spells it Casey. It's a good, common way to spell it. But since yours will be short for Caitlin, I'd probably go with one of those that reflects that, so my recommendation is one that starts with Cai-.

I know a girl who spells hers Kacee and I think it's cute. I see "Casey" and I think it's automatically male. That's probably because I like it on a guy better. But anyway, I like Kacee, Kaycee, and Caisey [since your name is spelled with a Cai- at the beginning].

I like it regular. Casey.
None of the others are really pleasing to the eye except for Casey.

Either Casey or Caisey.

The I may be better b/c its more similar to your name already

As another Kaitlin I feel your pain.

I'd go with Casey.

you could go by the spelling your parents wanted. i wouldn't do the k's since your name doesn't begin with a k.

Either the first or the second. The second only because your name has an 'ai' in it. The first would be better, though.

Why not some other name that's actually short for Caitlin?

Catie
Lynnie
Cate

Cairie/Carie would be quite lovely, in my opinion.

My brother spells his name Casey, however I know a girl who spells it Kacey. I think you should stick with Caitlin though.

I have a friend named Kaycee.
Anyway, I'm liking Caisey the best.

If you were naming a child, I'd say go with Casey/Kasey. But since its a nickname for you, and you are CAItlin, i'd go with CAIsey

Casey or Kaycee.

The ones beginning with 'K' pain me, I have to say. I like just regular Casey, actually.

I prefer Casey or Caisey, because of the Cai in your name. I also like the suggestion of Cairie or just going by Marie, though I don't know how many of those there are...

Caitlin is pretty though.

My roommates name is Jacqueline but goes by Kasey!

I like Casey because it is more "traditional" but I also kind of like Caicee to be more fun and different.

Casey. Those others look absolutely ridiculous and retarded.

i've had a dog, a bestfriend(girl) and a kitty all named Casey and spelled that way. Its the easiest way to spell it and if you dont choose to spell it that way everyone will mispell it like that anyway.

Casey or Caisey. Leaning toward Casey.

Oh, my sister is Caitlin. I think you should stick with it. That's the best way to spell it, too.
