Kate-Rah

Looks either made-up or mis-spelled.

what about katarina (pronounced like cat-a-rayna or cat-a-reena)--not sure of the spelling. like katrina, but more russian sounding? you could totally call her katie for short. we had a finnish exchange student last summer and her name was that (although with lots of r-rolling and sounds we don't use in american english).

i'm not loving that name myself but i do like Kaitia or katarina.

this is a great site for names...

these days it's the kid with the ordinary name that's unusual, at least where i live! i only know a handful of kids with traditional names.

ky-EE-trah.

I agree with everyone else -- sounds made up.

How about Kateri? This name is of Native American origen. Kateri Tekakwitha was of Mohawk/Algonquin heritage; she is the patroness of the environment/ecology (Catholic church).

Although, that's the one we'll fall back on. I was just hoping for a more unique name. Any suggestions?

What's wrong with naming your daughter Katey? My name is Angie...not Angela, Angelina, Angelica or any other name people try to call me thinking it's my full name.
