I'm not really fond of any of the names, but spelling-wise

1. Kaitlin
2. Caitlin (since it is Irish, ergo more legitimate in my book)
3. Kayla
4. Kayleigh
5. NONE. All of them look awful.

None of these look right. Kaylie, I guess

Kaelyn - this is the most common spelling and looks more "correct" imo.

I love my niece, but she's a Kayleigh. Keep telling myself "A rose by any other name would be as sweet..."

I prefer Katelyn for the first two because I hate Cait, Kait, Catie, or any sort of other crappy variations of Katie/Kate.

Kayla

Kayleigh (I don't know why, it looks like ass).

Kailyn.

oh, i agree about Kahlen. also, my friend spells it Kaylene (although it's pronouced "kay-LEEN" instead of "kay-LIN"). i think that looks best.
