Martha or Tabitha?

Love both - not too frilly, both biblical which I like, both work with our surname and DD1's name, and miraculously DH is equally keen on both. I just don't have one leaping out at me over the other - DH slightly prefers Martha, but good friends have already used it and while I don't think that rules it out completely, Tabitha would feel more 'ours'.

Any thoughts?

Before we knew DC3 was a boy I had Tabitha nn Kitty on my shortlist.

Martha, love it. Tabitha is ok just not really my thing. Martha seems like the name of a kind and sweet person!

I prefer Tabitha. Why don't you waituntil she's born and see what fits her best x

DH loved the name Tabitha but I couldn't get my head around it. Martha was always one of those names I liked & yet never made our short lists.
