Question: is tabitha a biblical name?
Answer: The English name is derived from an Aramaic word, טביתא ṭaḇīṯā "[female] gazelle", cf. Hebrew: צְבִיָּה‎ Tzviya (classical ṣəḇīyāh). It is a biblical name from Acts of the Apostles (Acts 9:36), which in the original Greek was Ταβιθά, in which Tabitha ('gorgeous' in Greek) is a woman raised from the dead by Saint Peter.
