do you mean Loch Katrine?

I don't think it's related to the name Katherine, but I must find out. It's pronounced KAT-rin.
As to the original question, i agree with most posters that the 4 syllable pronunciation is considered unlearned and is technically incorrect, so for that reason I wouldn't use it although I do agree it has a nice sound to it. I think cat-reena is just as nice though. I prefer the nicknames Cat, Cate or Kitty.
