Tabitha

[JanuaryJuniper]

As a sister to Eli and Aphra?? (Yes this is my second thread this morning )

We are finding girls names very difficult!

[JanuaryJuniper]

I'm thinking they all tie nicely together with a biblical theme, not that that is a must.

[reuset]

Sounds fine to me, though a bit similar to Aphra...possibly. I don't like themes though.

[Awwlookatmybabyspider]

I'm.getting tongue twisted saying those two names in my head. I'm saying things like Abita and Tapra, ect. No I wouldn't put those 2 names together, personally. Pheobe goes much better or to give you more biblical names.
Naomi
Hannah
Rebecca
Ruth

[RueDeDay]

I think Tamsin would go better.

[KlingybunFistelvase]

Lovely!

I love Tabitha but it really doesnt go with Aphra sorry

[Sparklingbrook]

Does it matter if they don't 'go'?

[Awwlookatmybabyspider]

Absolutely. Sparkling. IMO, though. Its not really the fact that they don't go. Its not like having 2 completley different style of names eg Harriet and a Courtney. Its that they sound too alike and I think people would get mixed up saying them together.

[Sparklingbrook]

I don't understand why it matters. You aren't welded to your siblings throughout life. How many times will they be said together?

I only learnt of this matchy thing in 2011 when I joined MN. I had my DC in 1999 and 2002. It never occurred to me to match their names.

[BlahBlahBlahEtc]

It's my DD name :)

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

Love Tabitha, but not with your existing names.

[Abetes]

I think they are too similar too. Sorry!

[CakeRattleandRoll]

Love Tabitha.
I agree with Sparkling that it doesn't really matter if sibling names 'go' or not. (Unless maybe if you had something like Alexandria and Jane.) FWIW I think Tabitha, Eli and Aphra sound fine together.

[indigo13]

Yes the issue is that they sound too alike which would matter, but if it doesnt matter to you op then go for it

[KlingybunFistelvase]

They're only similar if you mispronounce your th sounds surely though? Aphra and Tabiffa sound similar but Aphra and Tabitha don't (to me anyway)!

[Sophronia]

Very nice

[Jooni]

I think they sound great together, and I really love Tabitha!

[reuset]

They're only similar if you mispronounce your th sounds surely though?

I don't mispronounce 'th' sounds. I just think they have a similar sound.

[KlingybunFistelvase]

I didn't mean to imply you did reuset !

I don't think they sound similar. Not enough to put be off using them together at least.

[reuset]

No, I agree. I don't think it's similar enough to prevent using.

[crapfatbanana]

I think it's fine.

Hepzibah?

[user123691]

I love Tabitha.

[strawberrypenguin]

Love it

[PinkCrystal]

Lovely name

[RuthB4]

I think Tabitha is lovely and sounds fine with Aphra. I agree that it doesn't really matter if names 'go' or not, although having said that i think those three names do go!
