Is it not the Irish for Kathleen in which case the prounciation could be more the way your dh thinks it is.

I saw it in the nct magazine. Says on a baby name website it is a greek name meaning 'pure'.

I agree Caitlin is also nice but it is meant to be pronouced Catlin according to dh and I want a Kate sound at the beginning.

Kaitland, just off the A36, where everyone you meet's called kate

Well, Caitlin is nice.
WHere the hell did you dig up Kaitland from though?

AnarchyAunt · 28/06/2009 20:49

There was a Kaitland at DD's old nursery and it made my teeth itch every time I saw it written down.

It just looks daft.

Do you need a passport to go there?

rubyslippers · 28/06/2009 20:47

what is wrong with Caitlin?

SoupDragon · 28/06/2009 20:47

What do I think? That everyone will think you're an idiot who can't spell Caitlin.

Bloody awful!! A wind up yes?

runnyhabbit · 28/06/2009 20:41
