Catherine’s the name of a close friend (practically family now) that I admire a lot, so I wouldn’t mind using such a plain middle, especially with a slightly different fn like
Nadine.
I don’t like the clash of the d’s in
Nadine and
Cordelia, and the double t in
Bettina almost gives off the same sound.
Nadine Evangelina is too much of a mouthful for me, and I think
Phyllis is ugly.
Nadine Bianca flows the best and is the nicest.
I pronounce it NAY-deen. :)
