My first thoughts for more unique C/K names were Crispin, Caspian or Cillian for a boy or Calista/Callista for a girl. Of course, the boy names begin and end the same as Kaitlin, so I wouldn't personally use them as fns, but they were the first that crossed my mind.

But you definitely don't "need to stick with c or k" name, FWIW. Kaitlin and Courtney may start with the same K sound, but they have different styles and don't really look matchy, especially since they don't actually start with the same letter. If I were you I'd find a name I loved, regardless of what letter it starts with, because the names you have now don't seem too much like a pattern -- more like a coincidence. Kaitlin, Courtney and Alanna, for example, sound perfectly natural together (not like Alanna is the "odd one out or anything, KWIM), while Kaitlin, Courtney and Calista definitely have that cutesy/matchy sound (much as I like the names themselves). Just thought it was worth mentioning since you sounded like you felt you had to go with a C/K this time.

Another idea you might like is to use a C/K mn for this one. They'd all have that link, if you really think it's necessary, but the names themselves won't seem so forced.

A few C/K names... I put ** by my favorites for you.

BOYS:
**Christopher
Calvin
Caden (probably too close to Kaitlin)
Carl
Kevin

GIRLS:
Corinne
**Carissa
Claire
Kiara
Cassandra
Cassidy
Charis (CARE-iss)
Carina/Karina
Carla/Karla
Cara/Kara
**Kendra
Katrina
Kelsey
**Camille, nn Cami

Some other names that I think fit with the style of your girls' names, but don't start with a C/K...

BOYS:
Gavin
Bryce
Hayden (too "rhymey" with Kaitlin?)
**Jackson
Nicholas
Nathan
Derek
Ethan
**Dominic

GIRLS:
Jessa/**Jessica/Jessamine/Jessalyn
Mariah
Brianna
Marissa
Gabrielle
**Alyssa
Miranda
Valerie
Madison

Hope that gives you a few more ideas. Good luck TTC!
