Tova or Tatianna? (Female baby name)

[Sophiet1908]

I love both names but am unsure which one I prefer? Would love some honest opinions thanks x

[KoalaDownUnder]

I love the name Tatiana (spelled like this). It's beautiful.

Not so keen on Tova. Sounds like a car/shoe brand.

[lizzieoak]

I know a few Tovas, I think it's lovely. Rather depends on your last name - I think Tova is more versatile. Tatiana needs an interesting last name, you can't be Tatiana Johnson.

[Sophiet1908]

Hi, our last name is rather long and foreign if that makes any difference. Thanks :)

[Mrsknackered]

Tova's cute.
Round where we are Tatiana is slang for prostitute. Sorry!

[Jooni]

I like both. I think I'd go with Tova/Tove with a long complicated surname though.

[SuperBeagle]

Tatiana is lovely (this spelling, no second n).

Not a fan of Tova. It sounds incomplete or made up.

[Jamhandprints]

Tova's a nice jewish name. I don't like Tatiana, it sounds a bit fake unless you or your DP are Russian. If it's a traditional name in your culture then it's fine.

[BarInSpace]

I like Tatiana. Also Tara, Natasha, Talia.

[Purplebluebird]

I prefer Tuva :) Tatiana is fine too.

[Elbi]

I love Tova. Like the strong meaning too - isn't it 'beautiful thunder'?

[GreedyDuck]

I prefer Tove (pronounced similarly but not quite) - as in Tove Jansson, the creator of the Moomins.

[Sophronia]

Tatiana (this spelling)

[Alyosha]

Tatiana is lovely.

What nn? I'm assuming Tania?

[Sophiet1908]

thanks for your suggestions x still deciding though

[DramaAlpaca]

Oh I do like Tova. I've never heard it before.

I'm not quite so keen on Tatiana.

[EssentialHummus]

Not a fan of Tova - in Hebrew it's the female form of "good", which seems really boring. Prefer Tatiana, nn Tania.

[hoddtastic]

i like Tove- DS has a friend called Tove. Tatiana is the 'correct' spelling, Tatti-Anna (tatty anna) is less good spelled the way you have done it, like 2 separate words, tatty and anna

[hoddtastic]

or Tatjana

[1horatio]

I love Tova :)

[Zampa]

My daughter's middle name is Tove. We pronounce it two-va, like a Yorkshire man referring to his vacuum cleaner. I love it and sometimes wish we'd gone for it as a first name.

Dislike both. Tanya/Tania?

[KoalaDownUnder]

Dislike both. Tanya/Tania?

Oh God, anything but Tanya/Tania!

[marmitecrumpets]

Tatiana

[CleanMess]

Both are lovely and you spelling of Tatianna is lovely too. I guess it would make me stress 'Anna' rather than 'Anya'. IYSWIM

Really nice names!

[BasicBetty]

I've not heard Tova before. Much prefer Tatiana.
