Tabitha, Matilda or something else?!

I really really love Tabitha, but our surname is Thatcher and I worry it's too wordy on the Thas?! I also love Matilda but I already have a Matty and I think perhaps it's too twee to have children with the same letter - am I overthinking it?

Other names on my list are Penelope, Eliza (DH doesn't like) and Francesca. DH likes felicity but I'm not keen on any of the nicknames. I wouldn't necessarily want either Tabitha or Matilda nicknamed either.

Any thoughts or suggestions - were really quite stuck with which way to go!

Or

Phoebe
Beatrice
Eleanor
Jennifer

I love Tabitha and Matilda.

Matilda can be shortened to Matty though so I would go for that.

I also like Phoebe and Frances.
