Is that by choice or did the others move? Grin

Flowers in the Attic girl was called Cathy. And the creepy brother was Cathy this and Cathy that until he wore her down.

As soon as I hear the name Cathy, I think of that show Nighty Night.

My neighbour Cathie is a busy body

I just can't listen to that song without thinking of Alan Partridge's version. Sorry, Kate.

My aunt Cathy is swell.

My neighbor Kathy (from when we were kids) was always strange. Nice though. And now she is a fairy at renaissance fairs and fairly famous, as those things go.

k.d. lang is a Kathryn. Only her mother gets away with calling her Kathy.

Musicaltheatremum · 30/09/2014 07:32

My daughter is a Cathy. She's 21. Still Catherine to he grandma though as she was Catherine until she was 12.

doobledootch · 30/09/2014 07:35

When I was younger we used to go to Kathy's Cafe.

It will make up comeback when Katherine's get bored of being mates

Jennco · 01/10/2014 13:36

I hate the name, I sincerely apologize to anyone whom I offend, but it reminds me of eastenders. So I did what any sane person would do ...
I named my daughter Catherine Grin I call her Catie :D
