This reminds me too much of Mean Girls.

Caddie and Callie can both be short for Caroline. Callie could also be short for Calista? Caddie could be Catherine? It can really be anything you want.

I'd go with Caddy like in the Sound and the Fury. I think it is a nickname for Candice but I'm not sure they really say in the book.

This is OP and I’m pronouncing Caddy/Caddie like golf caddy. I agree with PP that I would never think to pronounce it like “Cady/Katie”. It’s like the difference between Addie and Sadie.

I guess it's better to name your daughter after a character in the Compson family than a character in the Bundren family, but really?!
