[Opinions] Re: Theresa
in reply to a message by Bear
I do like Teresa, however, I like it mainly for its nns (Tess, Tessa, Resa). I did think of using it with Anna because I have a thing for Mother Teresa. Can you imagine how pretty Anna Teresa would have been? Still, it just didn't feel right for some reason and that's probably because I prefer the pronunciation the way Mother Teresa pronounced her name (not the American long e sound). Then again, as a mn it wouldn't have been a huge issue.Combos I've tossed around:Teresa Claire
Teresa Juliet
Teresa Madeleine
Teresa Francesca -- long, yes?
Teresa Jane
Teresa Penelope
Teresa Helen / Helene / HelenaI haven't given it too much thought since I mainly like Teresa Claire and Teresa Juliet. You could always go with something really extraordinary for the middle such as Wilhelmina, Ottilie or Parthenope or even Delilah.

Oh, Anna Teresa without the long "e" sound, would be gorgeous. It flows so effortlessly off the tongue. Still, Anna Caroline is hard to beat. ;-)Teresa Penelope fits together nicely. I like T and P names together. While I adore Parthenope I fear that Teresa is a bit of a wet blanket (i.e., good influence) for her. I think they would get on each others' nerves too much. Thanks for the input! It's most appreciated.
