My hubby and I both like the name Kate for a little girl. However, Katherine is not our favorite. Can anyone suggest other names that could be shortened to "Kate". Thanks!!

Maybe Katarina or Katrina? You could always just name her Kate, the name doesn't need to be short for something.

We are naming our daughter (if we have one - it's a surprise) Kathryn and I'm calling her Kate (husband wants to call her Kathryn). Since our last name is a 12 letter German name, I wanted the name shorter than Katherine so we agreed on the spelling Kathryn. My first choice would be to just call her Kate - but husband wants the Kathryn. My other suggestion would be Katrina.

Here are two names that could also be Kate

Katherine
Kathy

Since you both like it have you thought about just naming her Kate short for nothing?

Good Luck
