Don't get me started. I'm SO done with that name. it's an extremely common name in my age group (and people up to like 15 years older). I went to school with a bunch, I work with two, I played floorball with another, etc...

Wow. I've met a few Theresas/Teresas, but I have never met a Therese. That's interesting.

I love it. It’s one of my favorite T female names.

Hi Billina !!!Way too common here in Italy. Classic but now quite dated. Too religious vibe.

I think it’s lovely when it’s pronounced teh-rez, but I really dislike teh-reese

I like the French pronunciation / version best, then Theresa, then Therese. I like all of them, really, though, and enjoy the nicknames Tess and Tessa.

I really like Theresa with the nickname Tessa / Tess, but Therese is nice. I have encountered one or two over the years, but neither name is common in my area.

I think it’s lovely!

It's pretty and not too popular where I'm from. I like the French pronunciation more than the English one, though.

I prefer Theresa and especially Tessa. Therese is no doubt fine if you're French, but I'm not, so I wouldn't consider it for one moment. I wouldn't consider Annette or Janine either, but they don't seem as unEnglish!

I think it's rather boring, but I like it used in double barreled names, like Marie-Therese or Sophie-Therese.

I like the warm, earthy associations and much prefer it to Theresa. I enjoy it best as a middle, but would enjoy meeting a young bearer.

Not a fan. Very dowdy and has a weird blue-grey color.
