My niece is named Katie and it suits her perfectly. After considering the longer “proper” names that would give Katie as a nickname, my sister decided she’d rather just give her the name she was going to call her. (As a child, I also had a friend named Katie who was just about the sweetest girl you could ever meet.) In my opinion it depends what you’re going for. It’s not unique or flashy, which will make it boring to some, but for others who dislike new and “out there” naming styles it might signal that you have lovely, classic taste.
