I love the name.

Time40 · 06/10/2022 21:08

I love it. It's gorgeous. I've only ever met one in real life.

And if you like it, what other names do you like?

Lydia. Lillian. Audrey. Fenella.

I know a couple and think it’s lovely. What about Clio? Hebe? Cordelia?.

Jleome · 06/10/2022 21:39

I love the name. I know a gorgeous 17 year old girl. The parents could not find the name until a day before her birth. Go for it

It's lovely and I've actually never met one. Similar nice names could be Callie/Callista, Hallie Rosa, Aria

How do you pronounce it?

NOTANUM · 06/10/2022 22:03

I know about 5 Talias, one of which is spelt Tahlia.

The Talias are pronounced Ta-lee-a
The Tahlia is pronounced Taw-lee-a

Its a very nice name but depending where you live, there may be a few in the class.

cloudcett · 06/10/2022 22:04

I love it!

CountdownCat · 06/10/2022 22:09

I have a 9 year old Tahlia and we have never met another one!
pronounced Tah-lee-a

bluedomino · 06/10/2022 22:09

Nope. Getting very popular. Reminds me of thalidomide.

FredinBread · 06/10/2022 22:10

Love the name

How about
Aphra
Mara
Hilary
Lois

TeaMeBasil · 06/10/2022 22:16

@bluedomino it reminds you of thalidomide??

That's a bit of a stretch! It also begins with a T I guess?! Confused

SpinningFloppa · 06/10/2022 22:19

It’s ok, I don’t love it. There’s one in my daughters class it is pronounced tar lee ah

bluedomino · 06/10/2022 22:34

Sorry, she asked! I gave my opinion. Just like people say Lydia reminds them of chlamydia or Esme of excema. We can't help the associations that go on in the dark corners of our minds. No offence intended.

AutumnalCosyness · 06/10/2022 22:36

Love it

Verity
Cleo
Lucia
Lydia
Eloise
Paloma

Mayim · 06/10/2022 22:53

@CountdownCat I also have a Tahlia!

FreezingThyme · 06/10/2022 22:57

I’m Jewish and it’s a popular name in our community. I really like it. I had a friend at school called Thalia who was of Greek Cypriot heritage . I really like that too.

ladydimitrescu · 06/10/2022 22:58

My goddaughter is Talia and I adore it

TippyToesKnows · 06/10/2022 22:59

Beautiful

sweetkitty · 06/10/2022 23:18

I have a Talia pronounced Tah-LEE-aH

I love it obviously and have had nothing but compliments (she’s 16 now) it’s apparently an old Hebrew name meaning Dew from Heaven of just From Heaven.
