[Opinions] Theresa
I watched the wonderful Looking for Mr. Goodbar starring Diane Keaton as Theresa last night, and hearing the name so many times made me confront its beauty. I think I've always liked it, but I was turned off by its...pedestrian flavor, maybe? It's definitely not exotic, but I can't deny how lovely it is. I also love the nicknames Tessie and Tisa. What do you think?Combinations are challenging, but I'll try:Theresa Ambrosine
Theresa Antigone
Theresa Betony
Theresa Briony / Bryony
Theresa Bronwen
Theresa Clotilde
Theresa Cosima
Theresa Delphine
Theresa Edwina
Theresa Eglantine
Theresa Eleanora / Eleonora
Theresa Eugenia

Theresa Fabiana
Theresa Flavia
Theresa Floriana
Theresa Fortunata
Theresa Gwendolen
Theresa Ianthe
Theresa Imogen
Theresa Iolanthe
Theresa Jacobina
Theresa Jacomina
Theresa Jocasta
Theresa Laxmi
Theresa Leocadia
Theresa Leontina / Leontine
Theresa Lucasta
Theresa Lunette
Theresa Magdalena
Theresa Melisande
Theresa Melpomene
Theresa Odette
Theresa Oenone
Theresa Primrose
Theresa Primula
Theresa Raphaela
Theresa Rosaline

I want to like it but was put off when Theresa May was the Prime Minister of my country and became my number one association with the name. I did know a Czech woman called Tereza who went exclusively by "Tez".I think I like the look of Teresa more.Theresa Marigold
Theresa Diana
Theresa Claudette
Theresa Mouchette (I saw you post about this name before and I think it's cute)
Theresa Ffion
Theresa Genevieve

I love it. It's bland but very appealing, like fields of grain.
Tessie is cute! I like Tess both as a NN for Theresa and by itself.Theresa Oenone is fun.
Theresa Antigone and Theresa Delphine also sound nice.A couple more I sort of like...

I don't really care for Theresa too much myself but when I saw you had put a pole in the other day for Theresa Ianthe I thought it was pretty cute. It's a nice combo. I always imagined Theresa as being a little bit Stern so it should have a light and gentle name to balance it out. Tess, Tessa and Tessie are all sweet to me. I met a "Resa" Theresa once. Theresa may be more pedestrian but she's no delicate Wallflower, she'd be tomboyish, strong, perseverant and resourceful in my mind. A regular Katniss Everdeen!I also like:
