Is talitha a real name

Answer 1

There's no list of "real names", at least in the US. If you can think of it and you're stupid enough to call your kid that, it's a name.

That said, Talitha is at least as real as any other name, in that there have been people called that for a considerable length of time. It derives from an Aramaic phrase said by Jesus meaning approximately "Little girl, get up."
