Baby Names

Does this sibset sound ok?

After spending almost this entire pregnancy discussing baby names, at long last we have decided on Katherine Mae with a nn of Kate (but not Katie).  DS is Brady...do you think Brady and Kate sound ok together?  I really do plan to call her Katherine but wouldn't be opposed to calling her Kate.

FWIW, Katherine and Mae are my grandmother and DH"s grandmother so the names have a lot of meaning to us.

  • I think they sound just fine together. I'm not a fan of Katherine, but Kate is very nice, and it flows well with Brady.
  • Sounds fine to me. DD is named Katherine. We had every intention of calling her Kate or Katherine, but she fits the name Katie so much better.  Just telling you to keep an open mind :)

  • It's a fine sounding name with solid family honorings. But you do realize there will inevitably be people that call her Katie as times and she may even choose that as her own NN at some point. My niece is an example of a Kate turned Katie despite her parents original intentions.

  • Thanks for the input ladies! We do recognize that people are going to call her what they will and that's ok by me. I am also a big advocate of her choosing for herself someday. I just dont have the intention of starting off with "Katie" because I don't want a Katie and Brady for rhyming reasons.

    And I just want to add that it feels SO good to finally have decided on a name and one that I love.

    Thanks again!

    Agreed.. Rhyming w/ Katie would be a bit much..

  • I think it works.
