I'm Tabitha, but everyone calls me Tabby except my parents and my choir teacher. And a lot of times, my parents call me Tabby too... it just fits. I'm more of an independent, sleepy, fun, tabby-cat type (my middle name is Katherine, so I really am "Tabby Kat") than a Tabitha type, especially because Tabitha means either gazelle or graceful. And I am not either.
I was actually named after the Tabitha on Bewitched... as the story goes, my mom wanted a funny, clever, mischievous, sweet, pretty little girl like the character was. So she named me after her. It's an interesting way to get a name, only now when people meet me they always make witch cracks (and having a day-after-halloween-birthday SO doesn't help...) :cute:
