Names that sound like Tabitha

53 replies

10isenough · 07/02/2011 23:03

We are expecting dc3 and husband is convinced its a girl. We are trying to think of names (for both genders really) which would fit with our or dd's (dd1 Matilda & dd2 Henrietta). We both like Tabitha but our niece is called Tabitha.
Can anyone think of something which sounds like Tabitha or which would go with other dc's names??

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Tamar / Tamara (DH won't let me use it for DC3 if it turns out to be a girl, but I love it...)

I have a Tabitha - if she had sisters ( I ended up with two boys!) they would have been Matilda and Clementine.

Tanith?

RIZZ0 · 08/02/2011 13:34

Abigail?

About right or way off the mark!?!!?! Smile

onimolap · 07/02/2011 23:15

The obvious one is Talitha, but that's probably too alike.

How about: Alethea, Tallulah, Agatha, Thalia, Atalanta, Artemis, Eustacia, Stephanie, Atarah, Elodie, Ottoline?

Talitha is the only one that came to mind, as dollydimples has pointed out (it just means "girl", I think).

However, I'm presuming that you're going for more of a feel than exact sound and imagine that Talitha and Tabitha would get easily muddled up.

So, Matilda, Henrietta and:

Arabella
Cordelia
Diana
Francesca
Madeleine
Penelope

Envy i wanted dd to be Tabitha Matilda- dh put his foot down after much nose twitching a la 'Bewitched' Grin

snice · 07/02/2011 23:13

I was so desperate to type Babitha but you all beat me to it!

Plonker · 07/02/2011 23:12

How about Agatha?

Rindercella · 07/02/2011 23:12

Abitheah

Highlandgirl · 07/02/2011 23:11

What about Charlotte...?

I know it doesn't sound anything like Tabitha but IMO it goes well with your DD's?

Plonker · 07/02/2011 23:11
Grin
dollydimples · 07/02/2011 23:11

Talitha?

LawrieMarlow · 07/02/2011 23:10

Harriet is similar sort but rather similar to Henrietta I think.

scurryfunge · 07/02/2011 23:09

Damn, Plonker I was coming on to add Babitha.
