Hi there,

The title says it all really. We have finally whittled it down to our final two and would love to gauge opinion on them.

Thanks in advance x

I love the name Natasha. Talitha is okay but love the nn Tali/Tallie.

Talitha is beautiful and so is the story behind it.

All the best for your delivery! Lovely to have another little Talitha in the world ❤️

I really like Talitha - then I met one but she pronounced it Taleetha which I didn't like.

I love Talitha! Never heard it before, always loved Tabitha but adding this to the short list for DC3 too!

Mrs9C · 11/05/2016 23:01

Oops, ours is a Taleetha Blush, I also know a Tal-uh-tha...just personal preference.

Thanks everyone who has commented and Mrs9C on your kind wishes.

Feeling nervous & excited about the arrival of DC3!! Smile

Love Talitha.

Natasha is actually a pretty name, but I struggle to like it because it's so dated to my own era (like Natalie).

Best of luck for your delivery! Wd love to see a photo of little Talitha when she arrives Smile

I think both pronunciations are beautiful. Tabitha is at the top of our list if we have a girl in future. Love Talitha too, although we're not planning on having three...

Talitha is not pronounced like Tabitha. It's Tal-ee-tha. I like it, I know a lovely Talitha. But if you want it pronounced like Tabitha then I think you may find that difficult.

Homerun23 · 14/05/2016 21:28

I'm pretty sure you can pronounce it either way. I know of two and both pronounce it tal-i-tha (like Tabitha). Tal-ee-tha is also very pretty though.

I came across this link about how to proounce it: m.youtube.com/watch?v=l7POV-VNfKc

Thanks for the comments!x
