I would say no but if he "die-die" want to name the baby Catherine, I'd suggest using it as a middle name or changing the spelling --- instead of Catherine, maybe Kathryn, Cathryn or any other different variation of that name. Annoyance aside, maybe he does have a special reason to name his baby that? Sounds like a movie or soap opera, but maybe, just maybe she helped him or changed him for the better when he was in high school and he is grateful to her? I don't know why but it could be for weird creepy reasons, it could also be for sentimental, meaningful reasons.
