I really like the name but wouldn't use it as I hate all the shortened versions & cat connotations

Same, it's a lovely name but no nice diminutives. Similiar to Octavia

I love it. It was on my shortlist for DC2 but they were a boy!

I also really love it!

I love it but another massive Bewitched fan here too!

I think it really lovely although it sure about “Tabby” 🤔. However I currently know 3 Tabithas under 14 which seems a lot for a not super common name.

I know an adult Tabitha, I think it’s a great name

I've always loved it. I think it's a beautiful name and not overused.

My first though it Witch and second thought is it sounds like a tabby cat.

I clearly watched too many episodes of Bewitched as a child. I'm sure others won't have the same association with the name though.
