kate/cate

whats your favorite extended version of kate/cate?

middle name will be colleen, and i dont really care how it sounds with it, or flows or whatever.

the only name i am opposed to is kathleen, and thats just because thats my aunts name and its not that i dont love her, i do, i just dont want to be naming a child after her. plus, it sounds terrible with colleen. :)

daughter number one will be kate/cate or some variation, what are some good sibling names for the second child? how about a twin for kate/cate? whats a good set? twins run in my family, and it is my generation to have them, so i am preparing!

boy number ones middle name will be john. middle name for a second girl will depend on the first name, we have several options - could be mae, mary, marie, patricia, gray, shepard or samantha.

for what its worth...parents names are carrie marie (me) and john jude, jr. (goes exclusively by jack)

would love your thoughts on all of this!

ETA: how do you think kate/cate holds up as a name on its own?

i think catherine is my favorite so far. i was just curious what other peoples thoughts were. i like caitlin too, its a close second. with the three kates in your class, what are their full names?

thats a really good point, actually. while i am usually a big stickler about names fitting a person through all the stages of life, i never thought about caitlin like that, but youre right, it really doesnt age well. thanks! :)
