How popular is tabitha?

Was considering Tabitha as a name but just wondering if it was becoming quite common?

I grew up being 1 of 6 ............ In each class and hated it and so have always know that I didn't want my children having a common name. Problem is every time I love a name, a year or so later it becomes the most common name used!!!

So just wondering how many little ones you know with this name (I don't have kids already so no access to nurseries etc to hear names)

Very popular on MN!

This is a great tool for checking how popular a name is... unfortunately, it hasn't been updated for a couple of years but it will still show you if a name is on an upward trajectory.

I think it probably depends where you live. In some places there will be lots of little Tabithas, but in other areas hardly any.

I know one 4yo Tabitha.

I think it's popular, but not in the same way as Isabel and its variants, Ellie or Millie. You might come across another one, but its unlikely you'd know loads, IYSWIM.

HTH!
