Juliet or Katherine (Kate)?
My first favorite name was Katherine (nickname Kate). I thought it was really cute when paired with DS (Ben and Kate). But DH tossed around the name Juliet, and we both really like that, too. We still like the middle name of "Ann" (family name).
Which do you prefer?
Humor me... it's Friday and I'm bored

I think Katherine Juliet is pretty. JMO

I love the name Juliet, but I don't like it with Ann. It doesn't flow.
I agree with a PP Katherine Juliet is pretty
Both Juliet & Kate are very nice choices, that's a tough one to choose between. IMO, you can't go wrong with either and they both sound cute with Ben.
Actually, isn't Ben & Kate a new TV show? I feel like I've heard commercials...so maybe Juliet then?
Gah! I just googled and it's coming out soon, I had no idea. It looks awful, too. Hmmm... something to consider

Ben and Kate is a show, and it's already out here in the States, anyways. It's kinda cute, but gets really low ratings and probably won't be on for very long.
My mom is Kathryn Ann.
And my dd's middle name is Kate (my mom specifically asked me not to use Kathryn for some silly reason).
I think Juliet Katherine and Katherine Juliet are both pretty!
Like pp said, I think Juliet Ann is a little hard to say.
My top girl name was Kate. However, we're having a boy named Benjamin (Ben)!
I love them together
But I also like "Benjamin and Juliet". The "j's" apparently are a hit with me

I agree with the PPs that Juliet Ann doesn't flow as well. And considering your son's name, I think "Ben and Kate" sounds super cute as a sibset without being themey or matchy at all. I wouldn't worry about the tv show association either... it isn't that well known and I really don't think that will be an issue for your kids in school or anything.
ETA: If you've been in love with the Katherine/Kate idea for a while, I'd be hesitant to change it. Given that you never know if you will get the chance to use it again, would you regret it down the line? Just something else to consider.
