Re: Middle Name for Katherine

  • Congratulations!  I vote Katherine Elizabeth, but Katherine Marie is nice, too.  I love the name Josephine but the repeat -ine is a little much.  

    You could also try:  Katherine Charlotte, Katherine Rose, Katherine Ada, Katherine Laurel . . . it works with so many other nice, classic names as well.

  • My name is Katherine and I like Elizabeth the best.

    On a different note I have always wondered about something. Since she is 1 and can already know the name she has, is she keeping the original first name she had or are you giving her a whole new name?

  • Congrats, that so exciting!!!  I love the name Katherine and all those middle names sound great.  I like Katherine Elizabeth the best.

    Katherine is her first name given at birth, she is one so I won't change that, and Katherine just happens to be one of the names DH and I chose if we ever had a little girl.

    Well thats cool that you already liked the name she has. Made it even easier for you :)

  • My name is Katherine and my middle name is Rene', however my mom almost named me Katherine Elizabeth.  I think its very pretty.
  • We have a Katherine Emily in my family, so that's my suggestion. Congrats on your daughter!!

    eta: Somehow, I missed that you gave three options, and thought you were just asking for suggestions.  Sorry! Of your choices, I like Marie. I feel like Katherine Elizabeth could be a mouthful because the fn and mn both have "th."  Maybe that sounds weird, but my name is Elizabeth and I think the "th" sounds a little clunky.

  • All sound beautiful, but I think I would go with Katherine Elizabeth.

    Always thought I'd be a "mom of many"--now just hoping to be a "mom of one or two more!"
  • All are very pretty, but my vote is Katherine Marie because the others are a little long for my taste.  You can't go wrong, though!
  • I like Elizabeth or Marie.

  • Katherine Elizabeth is my vote. 
  • I have a Katherine. Katherine April- which I don't love, but it's a family name. Wish we would have gone with Katherine Ruth (another family name, but 'April' already knew were thinking about using her name, Ruth didn't and I couldn't break April's heart.

    After filling out all the paper work for her I vote Marie- because it's short. Elizabeth or Josephine will make l.o.n.g!!

  • As a Catherine Marie, I'm pretty partial to Marie as a middle name :)
