Re: Nicknames for Katherine/Kathryn
in reply to a message by Maggie
As a Catherine I don't like nicknames and hate it when people call me something else. I go by a written nickname with family as my full name is too long.
Some names people have called me are Cath, Cathy, Cat and Kitty. The main one being Cath. Out of all the nicknames for Catherine I prefer Cate/Kate, but I'm a firm believer in that if you want to name your child for example Kitty then just name them that. Name her Katherine and wait until she's older and let her choose her own nickname if she wants one.
