Kathryn Madeline Allen: Hello. My name is Kathryn Madeline Allen. Kathryn and Madeline are my grandmothers' names. Allen is the last name of my father, and my grandfather and my great-grandfather and so on.
My last name, Allen, traveled from Scotland to Canada to the U.S. to me. My mother says she loves my name and it goes along well with my being a children's author, because it rhymes. Kathryn Madeline Allen.
