∙ 13y agoAnne was a big fan of the books of Dutch author Cissy van Marxfeldt, and Anne's favorite of her books was "The High School Years of Joop ter Heul". The entire book is written as a set of letters to friends, and Joop's best friend - whom she writes to most - is named "Kitty Franken".
Anne considered her diary to be her best friend, and she addressed the diary passages to "Kitty". It has nothing to do wit the cat Anne had to leave behind when she went into hiding, whos name was "Moortje".

She didn't personally feel that "Dear Diary" was personal enough for her. So, she named her diary "Kitty".
A simple explanation for that is because she saw the diary as a close friend she can confide in. She had been separated from her friends as a result of the war and persecution of Jews. You couldn't really trust anybody if you were a Jew, because even your friends would report you just for a reward.
In Anne's mind, because there were no friends or people she could really trust, the diary, Kitty, became her best friend who kept all of her secrets.
