Call me Catherine


Prince William's girlfriend, Kate Middleton has reportedly told friends that they are now to use her real name, Catherine, instead of the more relaxed and informal Kate which we all know her as. Rumors are circulating in her social circle that the two are on the point of announcing their engagement and this being the reason that Kate wants a more formal and official name.

Naturally some members of the media are saying that the woman has now become haughty and snobbish. I don't agree. When a reporter referred to the then Lady Diana Spencer as 'Di' the fiance of the Prince of Wales said 'it's Diana, actually'.

Personally I don't care what we call her, whether it's Catherine or Kate. I still like Ms Middleton and think she is a beautiful, discreet woman who Prince William should be proud to have on his arm.
