Caitlyn

Have you tried Catie or Katie? Or Kate. Those seem to be the most obvious to me. And if you're worried about going from a C name to a K nickname, that's what the Duchess of Cambridge has.

I've always dislike the spelling "variations" of Caitlin. Misspelling a common name does not make it unique or new.

Me neither! :( I can't find a nickname for myself that sounds or looks good..

Thanks for changing the pronoun, Nameberry!

I was talking respectively about the name Brooklyn (which in Wales ranks for boys and where yn denotes a male name) and I addressed that Caitlyn is obviously feminine because it's a spelling variation of Catherine but in my opinion most other lyn names can be either/or, it depends. I had a male teacher named Lynn. There are men named Jocelyn, Evelyn, Franklyn, etc.

She did not choose this name because it is genderless. She chose it because it is distinctly female, and when you start calling a traditionally female name unisex after it is used by a transwoman, it is a form of invalidation.

Why does the description identify Caitlyn Jenner's pronoun as "his"? SHE is Caitlyn Jenner, formerly known as Bruce.

Bruce Jenner becoming Caitlyn strengthens my love for Brooklyn on the boy side! Lyn names should be genderless :)

(though I know Caitlyn is a spelling variation of Catherine essentially)

This is the only spelling for this name that I actually like.

I dont love Cait or Lyn!
