What do you think when you first hear or see it?

I love it but most of MN hate it.

Sorry, I don't like it at all. I think of cat, then witch, then chunky old maid, then girl in my class in elementary school whose mom used to make Tabitha and all her siblings do modelling for Sears and then take their money for rent b/c she was too lazy to work.

It's my number one choice for my next cat's name (we already have a Teddy :P) but it's also a sweet little girl's name and I like that there are a few possible nicknames.

Tabitha is really nice. I would have liked it for dd, but DH was having none of it.

Love it!
Wasn't it the name of the little girl in bewitched, the 1960s tv show?
See, witchy names can be chic and elegant.

Don't like it for personal reasons.

I love it, as I have one! No one has ever said cat name to me (apart from my DM) and only ever got nice comments.

It means gazelle.

My DD is long limbed, always running, loves cats. Suits her.

She was supposed to be nn Abi, but is actually T.

IHeartKingThistle · 17/06/2012 00:37

Love it but DH vetoed cos of the cat thing Sad

FairLadyRantALot · 17/06/2012 01:34

Blackhaired and cheekey and got a spark!

I love it, my niece is Tabitha, but everyone calls her Tabi.

LavenderCakes · 17/06/2012 01:48

Love it. One of my DD's best friends is Tabitha and she gets Tibs, which is cute I think. I think associations with cats and witches are all good and Jilly Cooper associations are The Best Ever.

Sorry but it makes me think of cats. And a friend's tortoise also called Tabitha.

chlo13 · 17/06/2015 20:10

My friend's name is Tabitha, it is a very creative name just like her. I honestly love it Star
