What Name did Captain Janeway’s Friends and Family Call Her?

[Guy Gardener]

One of the first things Kathryn did on Voyager was deballing Harry for calling her by a name she was uncomfortable with.

There was a directly proportionate relationship between her comfort and everyone else's comfort.

Isn't that why captains have ready rooms, to keep them out of the way and comfy?

In the episode "Persistence of Vision" hallucination Mark (in the turbolift) called Janeway "Kath." Now I know he wasn't real, but it would seem the alien got the info used to create the "scenarios" from the victims' minds, so that would seem to mean KJ had memories in her mind of Mark calling her that particular nickname.

Well that's interesting.. and yet Chak calls her Kathryn in The Eternal Tide.

 

[Galekarens]

Well Chakotay was "just" her friend (and subordinate) in the series, lol, so still keeps w/ Kathryn in TET. Altho in my mind I can imagine maybe Chak (now that they're "together") in the books once in awhile calling her "Kate," heh.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Still better than Ma'am.

 

[Galekarens]

And also maybe Chak thinks the name "Kathryn" is kind of lovely so he would still usually call her that even "now" in The Eternal Tide. But maybe in the next book (Protectors) he might think of something else, lol.

BTW, I believe in Jeri Taylor's Janeway "biography" Mosaic father Janeway called KJ "Golden Bird." That idea was kind of continued in "Coda" when fake Admiral Edward said to her in one scene "My poor little bird."

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

Yeah I can see him calling her Kate. Kath? Nah.

 

[Gov Kodos]

Katycat? Kateykins?

Janeway made all of her lovers call her "Admiral" during intimate encounters. Not just after she made Admiral. She always did that.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

That's a small price to pay to be in that bed.

 

[Katherine]

I've just watched 'Coda' and witnessed this:

Chakotay: "Hang on, Kathryn. Breathe, damn you, breathe! Don't you die on me now. Come on, Kathryn, breathe! Listen to me, Kathryn, you've got to breathe. Breathe! Breathe! Come on, come on! Yes!"
