My husband and I picked out the name Katelyn before our 2nd son was born (if he was a girl) It is such a beautiful name we just decided to name our little girl Katelyn Jewel. It's good to see all the positive comments.

My name is Katelyn Claire but since there is 2 other Katelyns in my class everyone just calls me Kate. Im only 16 but I love my name and love that you can make it into Kate or Katelyn very easily. When I get older I might go back to being called Katelyn but I always love the option of being Kate too. LOVE MY NAME!:)

My daughter is named Katelynd! She was supposed to be a Kateland. I love it because it is a derivative of the name Catherine.

I just adore this name. We named our 7 yr old Katelyn. We knew it was popular but didn't care. It is just such a pretty, girly name. And we chose this spelling because we thought someday if she gets older and wants to go by Kate - it would be easy to do. She is now 7 years old and only goes by Katelyn though!

my Kaytlyn spells it different than any other i've seen - supposedly daddy found it on the internet but I hvent run across this paticular spelling anywhere else - it really stinks because she has one of the most popular names and still can not find anything with her name already on it ( pencil, stickers, necklace ) I know what shes going thru - my name is Jewel and i've never bought anything with my name on it :(

Katelyn is a beautiful, sweet, girly name. I heard it for the first time when I was 12 (1984) and vowed to name my daughter Katelyn. Ten years went by and I never met another Katelyn until I became a high school teacher. I had one in every class - spelled every way except "Katelyn". Never met a Katelyn I didn't like and after 8 years of teaching I had a baby girl: Katelyn Allison.
