[Opinions] Re: Tabitha?
in reply to a message by Egyptian Princess
I've come to love the name Tabitha. I used to not like it because of the "Bewitched" connection. But then I saw a dramatization of the Bronte sisters; their housekeeper / cook was named Tabitha and I fell in love with it. There aren't many T names so I was happy to add Tabitha to my "like/love" list. It's very refreshing. My stock combos:
Tabitha Jane
Tabitha Scout
Tabitha Lily
Tabitha Sparrow
Tabitha Liv
I wish I could say the same for Talia. But Talia always feels pretentious to me. I love Natalia so this makes no rational sense, I admit. I wouldn't mind Talia as a nn for Natalia as much as Talia on its own. But if I met a Talia in real life I'd still give her parents credit for using a classic name that isn't spelled oddly. It's just not a personal favorite of mine.
