+ If you heard the name KAY-lee, how would you spell it? -- Kayley
What is your preferred spelling of KAY-lee (list up to three different spellings if you want to, in order). -- Kayley
+ If you heard the name KATE-lyn, how would you spell it? -- Caitlin
What is your preferred spelling of KATE-lyn (again up to three spellings if you want to). -- Caitlin
+ If you heard the name HAY-lee how would you spell it? -- Hayley
What is your preferred spelling of HAY-lee (up to three). -- Hayley
+ If you heard the name KAY-lyn how would you spell it? -- Kaylyn
What is your preferred spelling of KAY-lyn (up to three). -- Kaylyn
HALEY - HAY-lee or HAL-lee? -- HAY-lee
KALEY - KAY-lee or KAL-lee? -- KAY-lee
KATLYN, KATLYNN - KATE-lyn or KAT-lyn? -- KATE-lyn
How do you pronounce CATELINE? -- I know it's French and the forerunner of the Irish Caitlin so I'd say CAHT-leen. What anyone else would say is anybody's guess.
How do you pronounce Caitlin? What about Caitlín? -- In the US, KATE-lyn.
Do you think it's wrong to pronounce Caitlin as KATE-lyn? What about Caitlín? -- No
What do you think of Cateline? -- I like it but feel people would think it's another form of Caitlin and would pronounce it that way.
What do you think of HAY-lee, KATE-lyn, KAY-lee and KAY-lyn? Do you see them as trashy, trendy, cute, strong what is your first impression? -- Not trendy but not strong either (perhaps Caitlin). Definitely cute. Then again, I'm not sure 'cute' is good for a lifetime.
How many people do you know with the names I listed above? How do you see them spelled most often? -- several Haileys and Haleys; several Katelyns, Kaitlins, Kaitlyns and Caitlins; several Kayleys, Kayleighs and Kaylees; one Kaylin
