About the Name Tamatha

The name Tamatha's root letters are TMTH.

Names that sport more than two syllables often contain contradictory forces that result in personalities that exhibit a certain degree of complexity. In the TMTH’s case, the combination of the trumpeting, triumphant letter T and the maternal motherly M sets the tone of a wonderfully sensitive spirit that we see in words like altruism, esteem, tame, autumn, and optimal. But the TH phoneme, with its spiritual associations of thankful, thoughtful, motherly, blithe and smooth, serve to define these people’s unique brand of gentility. The addition of the high-pitched letter Y at the end of the name Timothy, injects an additional dose of playfulness and approachability.

Tamathas are renowned for their loyal and authentic friendships. They couldn’t conceive of turning their backs on a loved one -- no matter how strained the relationship became – and take great pride in their ability to forgive and forget.   But somehow Tamathas seem drawn to controversy and even if they don’t actively create it, they always seem to be involved in a hullabaloo somewhere. Still, TMs aren’t the sort to back down from these confrontations. They have extraordinary faith in their ability to negotiate their way out of anything.

On superficial examination, Tamathas seems to be rather reclusive souls. But make no mistake… even though they are not ones to volunteer opinions or make judgments regarding others, they’re passionately committed to their ideals and will defend them vociferously. In a manifestation of their I’ll-do-it-my-way philosophy, their views often run contrary to those of society. If the word visionary seems to describe them perfectly, it’s because Tamathas always seem to be ten years ahead in both attitude and fashion.

When choosing careers, the Tamathas’ major requirements are jobs that allow them to interact with other people. But when it comes to office politics, Tamathas are better off opting out completely. This is because Tamathas believe that it’s better to be occasionally cheated than be perpetually suspicious and are often taken advantage of by more aggressive coworkers.

When it comes time to choose their mates, Tamathas are deliberate and calculating.   Since they’re patient souls in general, they’ll delve quite deeply into the intimate details of their partners before jumping into the deep-end and won’t waste their time on frivolous relationships. But when it comes to revealing their own dark secrets, the Tamathas would do well to practice what they preach. It will take some persistent coaxing to lure them from behind their fortified walls.
