Hi, Tanita!
TANITA is a fairly recent coinage but of ancient origin:
"Tanit" or actually "Tinnit" was the name of a Phoenician goddess. She was the main goddess of the City of Carthago, also called upon for fertility. Her name could possibly mean "powerful" but this is just a guess (taken from a doubtful Hebrew word).
Others however consider TANITA an elaboration on Tana or Tanja (both pet forms of the Russian TATJANA > TATIUS).
Does this help?

My wife and I really like the name Tana (New Zealand All Blacks Captain). However we have been told that the name is a girl's name and not a boys name. Could you help settle this dispute before we give our son a girls name.
many thanks
