Baby Names

Formal Name for Kate

My husband is set on the name Kate if we have a girl. I like it, but would like to use a more formal name with Kate as the NN. However, all I can come up with is Katherine, Kathleen or Katelyn and I'm not in love with any of them. Are there others I am forgetting?

  • I love just Kate! If I was having a girl that would be her name. It's simple, classic, and just beautiful. Cute as a little girls name and a great name for an adult.

  • My name is Kate. I love not being a Kathryn or Catherine or Katie. Simple and strong.
  • My name is Kathryn but no one has ever called me that and it can get annoying correcting people.  Also people assume my nickname is Kathy.  My parents decided to name me Kathryn instead of Katie because my mom said, "what if she becomes an ambassador one day?"  I think if you'll never call her by the formal name, just name her Kate and give her a strong middle name.

  • Some friends of mine just named their girl Kate. That's it. I love it. My name is Kathleen and I've always gone by Katie but DH and my dad both call me Kate.

    If you just like Kate just go with Kate!
