I was thinking if it were a girl naming her Caitlin Paige. My Fiance doesn't like the name Paige. I love the name Paige. Do you like Caitlin or Paige for the first name if we have a girl?

I prefer Paige, but Caitlin is pretty too.

I'm fond of Caitlin, I have a daughter ( 20 this year) whom I named Kaitlyn Elizabeth, I'm fond of "Katie" for a nick name

I like both names. Neither one is too unusual but not too overused either. Plus I like how you're spelling Caitlin. If you had to choose one, I'd say Caitlin. Otherwise the whole name Caitlin Paige sounds really pretty.

Juat out of curiousity, with the way you are spelling it, are you pronouncing it the traditional Irish way "koit + leen" or the english version KateLynn (Kaitlyn)? If you like really populare names this would be a great pick, but if you like something a little less used you may want to go with Paige or keep looking for that perfect name.HTH's.

I like Paige.

Kaitlyn seems too common to me. I have two friends with a Kaitlyn, one niece (nn Katie) and one cousin named Kaitlyn, but only know of one Paige (which was older and use to work with DH).

Best Wishes!

Neither names are my style, sorry.
