There'll be a Typhoon Kathleen one day, perhaps sooner than you think. :-) Karen is due for a revival, I think, although the other names as popular as it in the late fifties and early sixties (Susan and Debbie come to mind) seem not to be ready, just now.

Are you thinking to shorten Kathleen to something like Kathy or Katy, or don't know yet?

Someone we are both acquainted with from Manitoba has gone from Betty to Elizabeth to Liz in the 20-odd years I've known her. I think of her as Betty to this day, although I think I am generally successful in keeping up with the changes when talking to or about her.

K.
