Thoughts? My dh has mentioned it a few times now and it's really growing on me.

I like known/familiar names which aren't super popular, I also like Tabby as a nickname.

The cat association doesn't bother me.

Tia.

I have a Tabitha and she LOVES her name! Only met one other too 👍 ... though she's a Tabatha thinking about it.

I personally hate it. It’s a name, like Spike and Atticus, that I personally only want to associate with animals or side characters out of Kids fantasy books. However if you like it go for it.

Kikidelivers · 21/12/2018 17:56

I can’t bear it for some reason

Like it for a cat though!

I did think of our old cat at first, but I do like the name for a baby too, and the shortened version Tabby.

Zebedee88 · 21/12/2018 17:56

I like it! Also had a cat with the name but I still like it Smile

IdaBWells · 21/12/2018 17:57

I love it. The only girl I ever knew with the name was very gorgeous and glamorous.

Peachbubble · 21/12/2018 17:57

Love it, always been a favourite name of mine.

rachelfrost · 21/12/2018 17:57

Great name!

Tiredmumno1 · 21/12/2018 17:58

I love it too Smile

turnipsaretheonlyveg · 21/12/2018 17:59

Love it, it gets lots of complements in real life from strangers.

Soubriquet · 21/12/2018 18:00

I love this name

Used to have a cat called one. I mentioned it to dh about us using it for a girl

He was pretty firm on telling me where I can shove that name Grin

whatswithtodaytoday · 21/12/2018 18:01

My favourite girl's name.

Hereitisnow · 21/12/2018 18:01

I love it, I love both Samantha and Tabitha, the mother and daughter in Bewitched. :)

Tabitha

Love it

Hellohah · 21/12/2018 18:03

My cat is called Tabitha, so I like it 👍

Sallygoroundthemoon · 21/12/2018 18:07

Gorgeous name for a cat.

Elmo303 · 21/12/2018 19:03

Love it

DramaAlpaca · 21/12/2018 19:06

I used to have a cat called Tabitha, she was the loveliest cat ever.

Which is probably why I think the name is really weird on a human & I don't like it at all.

abcriskringle · 21/12/2018 19:08

I like it. I have a friend called Tabitha and she's very glamorous and lovely so only has positive connotations for me.

Whatififall · 21/12/2018 19:09

I love it, it was a serious contender when I had DD.

TheHobbitMum · 21/12/2018 19:10

I have a Tabitha and she loves her nickname (Tabby). It's a great name!

Narya · 21/12/2018 19:13

Outside of MN I've only ever heard it used for cats. Not a fan I'm afraid (even for cats)

Idontneedyourjudgement · 21/12/2018 19:15

We have a Tabs!my husband suggested it and I loved it from the get go....go for it!

IHaveBrilloHair · 21/12/2018 19:16

I love it.
