Is Tabitha's sister called...

Maude?

I just saw this name on a kid's show today and all the other characters called her Maudie. Suddenly this name seemed adorable.

Thoughts?

If not, what name would you pair with Tabitha?

The Tabitha I know has a sister called Cecily.

I know two Maude’s almost 10 years old. Both beautiful, creative girls with strong characters. Both Maudie when younger. If you like the name, go for it. I think it does go.
Also have a Tabitha in the family. Middle class “artsy” names.

Matilda.

No.

The sisters Tabitha and Maud. Tabitha was the beauty of the family but such was her sweet demeanor that no one ever held it against her. Except possibly her sister Maud, the only thing plainer than her face was her personality. All anyone remembered of poor Maud was her large glasses and dour look. Whereas there were always tales aplenty about Tabitha who was always the life and soul of the party

I'd go for something like Beatrix, Cordelia, Willow, or Jasmine. I'd be really miffed if my sisters was called Tabitha and I got lumbered with Maude!

Marina was what popped into my head.

Tillygetsit · 31/05/2021 23:01

Sorry but Tabitha is so beautiful and Maude...isn't. It's so clumpy and frumpy and I agree with pps who said they'd be fuming if their sister was Tabitha and they were Maude.
Eliza goes well and has the same 'weight'.

Yika · 31/05/2021 22:58

I quite like Maud but it’s a bit dour compared with the pretty Tabitha. I like the retro style though. How about
Daphne
Sybil
Imogen
Or maybe something like
Sorrel
Gaia
Ines

GloomyWaters · 31/05/2021 22:56

Tabitha and Lottie (Charlotte)

Bamaluz · 31/05/2021 22:44

Ophelia

Our little one is called Tabitha and it's a name we thought very long and hard about. Beatrice would be a very nice name for a second or Matilda (Tilly)

We decided against Beatrice as our surname begins with the letter J
