Re: Catherine
in reply to a message by Kelly R.
1. Since Catherine is easily "nicknamable" I might come up with a good NN to call her. What are your favorites?
I like Cay. Cate and Catie are nice too, but I find Cay more refreshing.
2. I also thought about calling her by her middle name. (Right now my favorite combos are Catherine Amelia and Catherine Fiona; both MNs are also on my favorites list.) I've heard of others who call their children by their MNs, but wondered what issues I'd need to be aware of with doing this. Any thoughts?
I don't think I'd personally name my child something and then call him or her by his or her middle name, but I don't think it's that big of a deal when other people do. A lot of people go by their middle names.
