  • Comment left Nov 02, 2009: "my name is kaitlin. everybody usually spells it katelyn though." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Nov 01, 2009: "I was named after a character on the original Degrassi junior high series! This was back in the 80's. I love my name!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 24, 2009: "My name is Caitlin and a lot of people spell it wrong. They spell it Caitlyn or Kaitlyn or Kaitlin. In one of my classes there were two Caitlin's (one of them being me) and a Caitlyn. It got confusing when the teacher said the name Caitlin/Caitlyn because then we would all answer. My friends and family have given me nicknames like Caity-lin and Caiti/Caity and Caitlin Waitlin. It is kind of embarrasing when a friend is around at your place when your Mum calls you Caitlin Waitlin too." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 16, 2009: "I love the name caitlin, but I dont like it when people spell my name wrong. I still live with it." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 16, 2009: "HI my name is also Caitlin:) i absolutely love my name. People call me cait and some actually call me caity-kins haha pretty embarrassing nickname:)" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 12, 2009: "I'm also a Caitlin and (until now) haven't met anyone else who's spelled the name correctly. I also have the constant misspell issues. The worst is when they're looking right at something with your name on it (ID, Driver's license, etc.). I love my name, always have. It's nice to not be an "Ashley" or a "Brittany" and have 12 of them in one class." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Oct 07, 2009: "hi my name is caitlin moy and when i was yonger i did'nt like it but now i am 10 years old at school people keep on making fun of me so i make fun of them and there people in year 6 like me." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 04, 2009: "My name is Caitlin (11)and I love it. People miss spell my name al the time. I didn't know there was so many people that had the same name as me." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Sep 12, 2009: "My name is caitlin, when I was younger I didn't like my name, I didn't think it sounded beautiful, I think All kids go through the same thing. Now that I'm a bit older I learned that this is really a beautiful unique way to spell "our" name, and I have had many other people comment how beautiful or unusual it is, sure many people may misspell it, but WHO CARES!!! It makes people notice you are unique if you have a unique name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Sep 08, 2009: "Caitlin is the best way to spell the name; not Kaitlyn or Caitlyn. This is the true Irish spelling" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 26, 2009: "My name is Caitlin and i never had anybody else spell it the same till now. Wow i guess i never tried here to look.....haha" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 16, 2009: "I love the name "Caitlin". It is such a cute name. There are many ways to spell Caitlin but this way is the authentic, irish way to spell it. Any other way is a variation." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Aug 10, 2009: "i like my name kinda, im 13, but it is mispelled a lot and i dont really like it." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 01, 2009: "My name is Caitlin and I love it because I have only met Kaitlyns. I hate when people say "Catlin," its ridiculous to me how they get cat out of "Cait" lol." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jun 19, 2009: "lighten up caitlin's! everyone has someone misspell his or her name. and for those of you distraught by misspellings, perhaps you should be looking into a spell check for your own posts..." (Report as inappropriate)
