Spellings

[ouronlylight.livejournal.com]

On my list of favorite names, there are a number of names that are commonly spelled many different ways. I have favorite spellings for most of them, but then I thought, "What about other people?". And BOOM! Charity came up with another way to spam people with polls. ;)

Agreed. I've only known Kathryns and Katherines. But the two I met this year are both Catherine. Sucks because I spelled it Katherine before knowing, just b/c it seems unusual to spell it that way nowadays, when in reality Catherine should have been the default since that's the original way (I think). But I got so used to the modified spellings.
