Do you prefer Katherine or Katerina?

I think I prefer Katerina but do you think it's a bit Russian Princess, I don't know, I think I like it because it sounds to me very feminine but not babyish?

Katherine might be a bit boring, but classic and strong which is the type of name I like, maybe goes better with DD name Adelaide?

Any thoughts thanks.

I like Katherine. Actually, I like Catherine better and I have no idea why.

Katherine. I like Katerina but think Katherine is stronger and more current. Katerina isn't quite the same but almost all the girls in my 8yos class have very feminine names, mostly ending in y/ie/ia and whilst they are nice names they do sound dated now.
