Tabitha Babbitt 1779-1853 was an American inventor. She was a well known tool maker and invented the circular saw among other things. She must have been of a strong character to break through in a male dominated world.

Tabatha is how the "Bewitched" character Tabitha Stephens' name was spelled during the first couple of seasons of the show she appeared in. Later the spelling was changed to Tabitha.
Elizabeth Montgomery (who played the character's mother, Samantha Stephens) suggested the name Tabitha for her TV daughter, but it was misspelled as Tabatha. They fixed this a few seasons later.
Montgomery has stated that she disliked the Tabatha spelling.
Samantha and Tabitha Stephens were friendly witches on the TV show "Bewitched" which ran from 1964-1972.
The character of Tabitha (first spelled Tabatha) was born on the show in 1966. The show had a huge impact on the popularity of the name. It wasn't in the top 1000 in 1965, but in 1966 after the character was born on the show it jumped all the way up to #524 (Tabitha) and #418 (Tabatha) in just one year.

When I was little, my parents took me to a Shaker cemetery. It wasn't one of those tourist trap places--we were the only ones there. In fact, we ended up in a location that wasn't on the map. Realistically, people probably knew about it, but I felt like I had found a hidden crypt.
One of the graves there said "Tabitha Babbit" and I instantly fell in love with this name. Not only did I love the sound, I also pictured a kindly old witch living in a small cabin in the woods with jars of herbs on her shelf.
Years later, I was doing a school project on the Shakers. Flipping nonchalantly through a book, I spotted the name Tabitha Babbit in the index. You have to understand, I knew this woman as a body in a grave; a fantasy image. It had never occurred to me that she had been a real person, let alone someone who was actually interesting to anybody but me. As it turns out, she was an inventor (the Shakers liked to make things), and one of her inventions was a circular saw. Not the very first circular saw, mind you, but a pretty good one.
At first I was disappointed. She seemed so normal, not a magical being at all. But two seconds later, as I kept reading, I forgot my disappointment. I've since joined the two images in my mind--a combination of the mysterious witch and the intelligent, spirited woman. This name has always been and will continue to be an inspiration for me.
