Yes, for sure. Love it!

annandale · 26/12/2016 01:33

Don't particularly mind it. I feel like it's in the middle - neither pretty nor kickass.

lizzieoak · 26/12/2016 01:32

Male potatoes - autocorrect fail.

lizzieoak · 26/12/2016 01:31

Sorry, it makes me think of potatoes. Make potatoes at that.

I'd be expecting a brother called Lyle.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 26/12/2016 01:24

I like it. I've surprised myself!

indigox · 26/12/2016 01:23

No

JessieDoops · 26/12/2016 01:15

I know a little girl spelt Tait, I really like it.

LotsoNumbers · 26/12/2016 00:52

No its awful for a boy or a girl

buttercup54321 · 26/12/2016 00:47

awful.

JudgeJudySheidlin · 25/12/2016 23:48

Prefer it for a boy but why not for a girl? Don't mind it at all. I'll be in the minority on here though

howtheheckdoidealwiththis · 25/12/2016 23:31

No don't like it. Sorry. How about...

Tattie as nn for Tatiana?

Tara?
Tess?

Pluto30 · 25/12/2016 23:12

It reminds me of Sharon Tate, which is a very sad association.

Horsegirl1 · 25/12/2016 21:33

My maiden surname was Tate so it's a definite no no for me. Also Tate is a boys name

Crabbo · 25/12/2016 21:25

I love it! Definitely not just a boys name, it's unisex.

Jigglealltheway · 25/12/2016 20:33

Awful, it's a boy's names and a really ugly name to give a little girl!

IAmNotTheOneWhoKnocks · 25/12/2016 20:33

I think of the gallery too.

Not a fan at all.

ViewBasket · 25/12/2016 19:25

It's slang for potato.

Lilacpink40 · 25/12/2016 18:06

No

SausageSoda · 25/12/2016 18:06

I like it as a male name but not for a girl.

expatinscotland · 25/12/2016 16:52

No.

Crumbs1 · 25/12/2016 16:33

Like an art gallery?

MothershipG · 25/12/2016 16:33

I like it.

But don't expect to get a positive response on here. GrinGrinGrin

ageingrunner · 25/12/2016 16:30

I knew a dog called Tate, short for Tatum

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 25/12/2016 16:09

Britain or Modern?
