Eliminating
Hailee- it looks somehow "lost" without a y in it)
Catelyn - too much like Kate-Lynn rather than Caitlin which name are you actually trying to use?
Emmaleigh - looks awkward and too many letters
Cathryn - Looks "insubstantial" and somehow not as legitimate as Kathryn etc.

Taking ...
Hayley - I just like this spelling least, not sure why
Caitlin - For an anglicized pronunciation, I prefer a different spelling.
Amelia - Snooty.
Kathryn - I pronounce this as three syllables, so this spelling irks me.
