Of all the Kates in all the Land....

So I was watching a movie the other day and came to this conclusion: Us, as a society, have deemed the name "Kate" as one that belongs to a lonely, bitter, soul of a woman. It's true! For some reason all the Kates are individuals who do not know how to have a romantic lifestyle and have to go through a dramatic even fantastical journey to find her true love.
I have compiled a list from popular movie culture as to add light to this situation.

1.) Obviously, we have Shakespeare to thank for this one. Katharina (Kate) from Taming of the Shrew.

2.) Kate from the 1995 film "French Kiss". Her fiance abandons her because she isn't nearly as adventurous and sexy as the French woman he just met. Kate has gusto though and in the process of trying to get her fiance back she finds a much more handsome French man.

3.) This is the lovely Meg Ryan, again. Playing Kate, again. This time a man from the 1800's sweeps her off her feet in her modern New York City flat. You guessed it, "Kate and Leopold".

4.) Now comes Sandra Bullock playing Kate who is two years ahead of her long-lost-love in "The Lake House"....

5.) Next is "Kat" or Kathleen (it's all deritives of Katherine) in Casper the friendly Ghost. She falls in love with a dead kid? great...

6.) I know, you are tired of Meg Ryan but she plays Kathleen Kelly in "You've got Mail"... Lonely Book Shop owner, her true love finds her on the internet.

7.) Ok, This one is a little Random. But Amy Adams plays "Katy" in a few episodes of The Office as the girlfriend of Jim. And no one likes her because all you want is Pam and Jim to be together.

....there was no picture of her on the office that I could find so here is one of pam and jim...

Well, that's enough for now! Do you people catch my drift? Us poor Kates.... Society continues to view us this way. But! hopefully those random, rare circumstances viewed above can happen to lots of us "Kates" in the universe.
