Just that, really! In your day to day life, how many have you come across? Also, if you feel you can say, can you tell me your region?!

Marvellous! It's a name oft recommended on here, and I wondered how truly popular it might be

Stellabystarlight · 16/09/2016 20:30

I like it for a cat though Jessica0107

Stellabystarlight · 16/09/2016 20:28

One. must be early 20s now.
Knew her as a spoilt, precocious only child to older parents which totally ruined the name for me. Not that I much liked it in the first place.

Jessica0107 · 16/09/2016 20:10

One. My cat

Littlelondoner · 16/09/2016 20:05

4 that I know personally-1in cheshire, 1 in Liverpool, 1 in Manchester & 1 in London all adults in their late 20s/ early 30s.

I worked teaching a childrens class for a bit and also heard a few Tabithas.

I personally love the name (on my baby names I like list)

Timeless, Classic not to common but not that unusual to question pronouciation or spelling etc.

HoratioNightboy · 16/09/2016 20:04

Only one, late teens. Lives in Surrey

dynevoran · 16/09/2016 19:55

My niece who is 5 in the USA. We live in London and I don't know any more.

QuimReaper · 16/09/2016 19:51

Beautiful name and on my list!
