Names that sound like Tabitha

53 replies

We are expecting dc3 and husband is convinced its a girl. We are trying to think of names (for both genders really) which would fit with our or dd's (dd1 Matilda & dd2 Henrietta). We both like Tabitha but our niece is called Tabitha.
Can anyone think of something which sounds like Tabitha or which would go with other dc's names??

Thanks in advance for any replies!

I have a Tabitha - if she had sisters ( I ended up with two boys!) they would have been Matilda and Clementine.

Tamar / Tamara (DH won't let me use it for DC3 if it turns out to be a girl, but I love it...)

A tale - One of my aunties liked the name Pauline for her daughter but a neighbour beat her to it when she gave birth first. My auntie then named her daughter Pollynn, which sounds like - but isn't quite - the name she wanted to use in the first place.
My advice would be to name your child Tabitha as it is the name you want. Don't compromise as you might regret it in future. x.x

Tabitha and Alyssa have a similar sound pattern when I say them but I'm not sure if everyone would think so?

i had a great aunt (sadly deceased) with the name Habitharg, however it seems slightly outdated for the present day (an 18th century name of scottish decent so i am led to believe)

Rhubarbgarden · 10/02/2011 08:41

Habitharg is a fantastic name!

I like Talitha, its how the little girl in the bible is referred to, who is brought back to life by Jesus, talitha meaning little girl.
