My full name is Katherine Elizabeth Fallon. My mom says my name was inspired by the actress Katharine Hepburn, but "Katherine" was also the spelling of someone in our family, so she went with that one. They both were strong women, and I feel proud to share their name. My name means "purity".

My name is pronounced CATH-er-rin. Ask me later how I found out I was pronouncing it wrong myself until I was in high school!

I go by Kate. I like my name, it's classic and it's one that feels right for a person of any age. Having a nickname sometimes can be confusing because I feel like I frequently get called the wrong thing. There also are so many ways to spell Katherine that that can be difficult for people, too!
