I posted a while back asking for name suggestions for a sister for Daniel.

We've now narrowed it down to the following:

Kaitlyn Ann H
Hannah Eloise H

(Surname starts with H).

Please let me know which you prefer.

The girls at our son's crèche voted 5-4 to Hannah.

I'm interested to know how the Munsnet jury voted!

Either way she needs to be registered TOMORROW!

That makes sense, Quietlygoingmad67! Thanks!

Hannah wins my vote.

I love both but I know a Kaitlyn who is known as 'Kait'/Kate...not sure if that bothers you or not.

I don't think the Kaitlyn spelling matters if the name is going to be pronounced Kate-lyn even if it's spelled the correct Irish way.

It should have two fadas anyway, one on the A and one on the last I, to be authentically Irish.

Which did you decide on op? :)

Libitina · 03/10/2015 18:01

Kaitlyn just makes me think of Caitlyn Jenner. Sorry.

Hannah for me.

EmpressKnowsWhereHerTowelIs · 03/10/2015 22:45

Me too, Libitina.

Hannah

Quietlygoingmad67 · 04/10/2015 09:45

tired OP don't keep us guessing - what name did you choose

Tired2ndTimeMum · 05/10/2015 14:40

After some last minute second thoughts and doubts... We decided to go for Hannah Eloise.

I was the one who originally picked Kaitlyn but then I went off it... In the end my husband liked Hannah but I started to think I preferred Kaitlyn again.

What swung it for me was that my husband was going to shorten the name to Katie and I really didn't like that.

I would've quite liked Eloise as a first name but that was vetoed. So Hannag it is! I just really hope I don't end up with name regret!!

Congratulations
Hannah Eloise is lovely x

Hannah goes really well with Daniel.

but do you remember that dreadful Hannah and Dan in this?

Kaitlyn just looks like a spelling mistake, sorry.
