[Opinions] Re: Kaitlyn or Kaitlin
in reply to a message by CJ
I prefer Kaitlin, as stated before I'm just not a fan of -lyn endings. However, I think you should go with Kaitlyn, because that is how you've spelled it in every post, and really I think deep down, that is what you feel your baby is named. :)
10 point scale (I based this on sound and flow with your last name, mostly):
Kaitlyn Alexandra Faith: 7
Kaitlyn Alexandra Paige: 7
Kaitlyn Alexandra Claire: 10
Kaitlyn Alexandra Pearl: 9
Kaitlyn Alexandra Odette: 9
Kaitlyn Alexandra Brooke: 6
Kaitlyn Alexandra Juliet: 10
Kaitlyn Alexandra Felicity: 6
Kaitlyn Alexandra Elaine: 9
Kaitlyn Alexandra Elyse: 9
Kaitlyn Alexandra Aimee: 4
Kaitlyn Alexandra Leigh: 7
Kaitlyn Alexandra Charlotte: 6
Kaitlyn Alexandra Juliet Wilkinson is my favorite. They are all lovely, classic names. I think the flow is good here, and the sounds don't repeat themselves. I think Juliet adds a delicate, feminine touch to this name.
Others I like:
Kaitlyn Alexandra Claire Wilkinson: I think Claire is a lovely classic, and it just runs superbly in this order.
Kaitlyn Alexandra Odette Wilkinson: I don't normally like Odette, but I think it adds a bit of delicate whimsy to this name.

Thank you so much, you've been a really big help. You're right I do prefer it spelled Kaitlyn but every time I use it people always say why do you spell it Caitlin. I just prefer it with a K and someone did suggest Kaitlin, I had considered Kaitlyn or Caitlyn. As you've noticed I have posted this a few times now but on one post people like a bunch of names and hate the others but then on another post people will like the names the last post hated and hate the ones the other post liked, which makes it difficult. I've found rating them and opinions about each set to be more helpful.
You're very welcome. Naming a baby is a big thing.
You want to like the name. You want everyone else to like the name... but it in most cases it is such a subjective process.
Some people will love that their children have familiar, popular names, or just love a name so much it doesn't matter (how I currently feel about Isabelle). Others would cringe at the idea of using something like that.
At this point, I really feel you've decided on Kaitlyn Alexandra, the third is really just what feels right to you. I feel they are all good names, some will like certain combinations better, some won't. Keep asking questions though, until you get to that point. :)
