I prefer Tessa to Piper. Tessa going to be less markedly associated with one generation than Piper which has a much steeper popularity peak. They're both modern, but Tessa has connections to Teresa, a traditional name. Tessa has a more subtle meaning than the direct word-name Piper. It is also slightly more feminine sounding which I appreciate, and has slightly better associations compared to the Pied Piper (not awful, but slightly annoying).
