Re: The History of Talia?
Thank you very much :) So there is no way for Talia and Thalia to be related names? Sometimes when going throught the database I see some names have more than one orgin usage and I didn't know if Talia had any other orgin usages or if its just Hebrew and thats all. Do you know if there are any other orgins that used the name Talia? Thank you for any input I really appreciate it. Thank you.~* Reality is for those who lack Imagination *~

Even though Talia and Thalia have distinctly different origins, I think it's possible that Talia could also be a form of Thalia in much the same way that Teresa was derived from Theresa. Not everyone pronounced the h and over time, it was dropped in some cultures. BTW, there is a Latina singer, Thalia, who pronounces her name without the h.Talia could also be a short form of Natalia.
