I think Kaleun is still used - if i remember correctly when I was in the German army we called the commanding officer from a navy unit "Kaleun".
IMHO Kaleunt, Kaleu and Kaleun all today can be used - last one being most common. But its still a kind of nick - correct rank, as mentioned above is called Kapitänleutnant

Equal american navy rank is Lieutenant.
