Help[Opinions] Re: Katherine, Kathryn, Catherine
in reply to a message by Lily
Most of the ones I know are Kathryns or Catherines. I would use the K + a version - Katharine - if any; but it's not a top favourite and there are so many with so many spellings that I'd always avoid it.
I know a Kathryn who must be in her sixties, so at least one set of parents liked it just after WWII! And I now know a Catherine who goes by the full version, though she was Cathy at school and they became one of the first Caits.
It can be useful, and fascinating, to look at the popularity charts on namenerds.com, where all variant spellings are counted together.
