I used to prefer Catherine to Katherine, now I'm in Katherine's team.
Honestly, it seems to be the most common name, imo. I know lots of Catherines, it's my cousin's name.
But it still appeals to me, to some extent.

But I'd prefer Katrin, Katrine and Katarina to any of them.ETA:

I prefer Katharine, but DH prefers Catherine. Apart from its popularity, that's a reason for not using it.

I like Catherine, but I think I'm more attracted to its variants (e.g. Kathleen, Karina, and Cateau). I loved it since I was little, because it is one of the first Western names that I've ever heard, I guess lol.From the Katherine/Katharine/Kathryn, I like Katharine the most. I think it sounds very authentic and looks really nice with the K at the beginning.I might pair Catherine as Catherine Belle, Catherine Marie, Catherine Diana, Catherine Zenobia, Catherine Wanda, Catherine Ophelia, or Catherine Shania.

I adore this name. Absolutely love it.I go back and forth. Generally Katharine is my favorite spelling, but Catherine is also great. I have nothing against Katherine, but I do feel that's a bit bland personally.Kathryn is my least favorite, by far. Again, nothing against it, but it feels too short for such a regal name.I don't care for the mishmash variants - Katheryn or Catharine or Kathrine.Middle names, I think, need to be comparable regal. That said, I'm weird in that I only like certain middle names with certain spellings.Katharine Victoria
Katharine Elizabeth
Katherine Elaina
Katherine Irene
Catherine Alexandra
Catherine Louise
