Just that really....love the name but have track record of picking names that then become super popular!

I went to school with one (I'm 29). I loved the name for if we had a daughter, but my partner vetoed it. He said it's a cat's name. I say go for it though, it's lovely.

I know one in her 40's who doesn't like her name; and one who's about 13.

I also know a child called Talitha and personally I prefer that.

DramaAlpaca · 06/04/2015 16:16

I've only known one, and she was my cat.

wherehavemyboobsgone · 06/04/2015 16:10

Just one cat

Treaclepie19 · 06/04/2015 15:19

I know one, we're also using this name if we have a girl :)

verelab · 03/04/2015 20:09

I know two. One is 4; one is 1. Doubt it'll become overly trendy, but these things are increasingly hard to predict. All it takes is a celeb choosing it! Doubt Kate n Will have it on their list though!

One, 49.

I know one, my goddaughter! She is 10.

One. Mine! 17 months x

Pandora37 · 30/03/2015 12:01

I know one who's 6. I think Tabitha is too much of a marmite name to become really popular.

LadyGregory · 29/03/2015 22:59

One, aged four, Midlands. Cool child. Known as Bitha.

karmagetsyou · 29/03/2015 22:38

Atnelpoe · 29/03/2015 22:32

I know 2 - one is about 7/8 and lives in Cheltenham, one is 12/13 and lives in w.yorks. Great name

MaraThonbar · 29/03/2015 18:33

One, mid-thirties, Home Counties.

FWIW she hates her name, and always has. She insists on going by Tab or Tabs to avoid the full name.

FunMitFlags · 29/03/2015 17:36

2 aged around 6/7 years

Instituteofstudies · 29/03/2015 17:23

One, who is 34. Not come across any others. I think it's a fab name.

CountingThePennies · 29/03/2015 15:23

I know one who is 10 years old
One who is 1 year old

I know 2 cats called Tabitha.

Tabitha is a very very common cats name as is Tilly which is short for Matilda
