Kate/Cate/Cait
I've always loved the nn Kate/Cate/Cait - but I don't think it really stands up to be a full name by itself.
What full name do you think it would best be a nn for?

I like Kate as a NN for Kathryn / Katheryn / Katherine (these are my favorite spellings of the name).
I also love the name Caitlyn, but am not too fond of the nickname spelled with a C.

I think Kate works by itself, but the others look cut off to me.

I do love Caitriona.
I would so call my child Hecate if it weren't for the Macbeth/Goddess-of-witches connotations.
