Thoughts? My dh has mentioned it a few times now and it's really growing on me.

I like known/familiar names which aren't super popular, I also like Tabby as a nickname.

The cat association doesn't bother me.

I like it. I have a friend called Tabitha and she's very glamorous and lovely so only has positive connotations for me.

I used to have a cat called Tabitha, she was the loveliest cat ever.

Which is probably why I think the name is really weird on a human & I don't like it at all.

Love it

Gorgeous name for a cat.

My cat is called Tabitha, so I like it 👍

Love it

I love it, I love both Samantha and Tabitha, the mother and daughter in Bewitched. :)

Tabitha

My favourite girl's name.

Soubriquet · 21/12/2018 18:00

I love this name

Used to have a cat called one. I mentioned it to dh about us using it for a girl

He was pretty firm on telling me where I can shove that name Grin

Love it, it gets lots of complements in real life from strangers.

Tiredmumno1 · 21/12/2018 17:58

I love it too Smile

rachelfrost · 21/12/2018 17:57

Great name!

Peachbubble · 21/12/2018 17:57

Love it, always been a favourite name of mine.

IdaBWells · 21/12/2018 17:57

I love it. The only girl I ever knew with the name was very gorgeous and glamorous.

Zebedee88 · 21/12/2018 17:56

I like it! Also had a cat with the name but I still like it Smile

Olinguito · 21/12/2018 17:56

I did think of our old cat at first, but I do like the name for a baby too, and the shortened version Tabby.

Kikidelivers · 21/12/2018 17:56

I can’t bear it for some reason

Like it for a cat though!

Cherries101 · 21/12/2018 17:55

I personally hate it. It’s a name, like Spike and Atticus, that I personally only want to associate with animals or side characters out of Kids fantasy books. However if you like it go for it.

flumpybear · 21/12/2018 17:55

I have a Tabitha and she LOVES her name! Only met one other too 👍 ... though she's a Tabatha thinking about it.
