Tabatha -
a Dinosaur?

Is the name Tabatha a dinosaur? We would say: It's classic! Parents chose this name most often in 1983, when it ranked #274 with 837 newborn girls receiving this special first name. In times of emerging digitalization, it thus experienced its last peak. Since Tabatha is both classic and fancy at the same time, people didn't always come up with the idea of giving their daughter this unusual name. So, if your name is Tabatha, feel classic and not old-fashioned, because after all, you stand out with your name these days!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Tabatha was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
