Re: Catriona

It's a known pronunciation, sure. It is "meant" to be Katrina in that it's a Gaelic version and that's the Gaelic pronunciation. 4 syls is like Mhairi pronounced "marry" instead of "varry", and you get that in Scotland too. The vast majority of people don't speak any Gaelic and these are all accepted variants.

Hm. Good to know - it can get confusing when you get dialact/variant differences on a name.
