  • Comment left Nov 09, 2009: "My name is Tessa, and I love it! Although there seem to be a lot of people who can't pronounce it or spell it. lol." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 04, 2009: "My name is Tessa and I have only met one other Tessa and that was at the Georgia mall once. I was looking at a map and this lady walked up and my sistter said 'move Tessa' so i did and the lady was like 'your name is Tessa? so is mine' and that's the only time I've met another Tessa. I really like my name and all my friends call me Tess or Tessa. One of my friends told me she was going to name her first daughter after me so I think i have a pretty unique name!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jun 30, 2009: "My name is Tessa! I think it is the most awesome name like ever :) I am really glad my parents named me Tessa. They told me they saw the name on the back of a card a little Indian girl drew. People ask me if its short for Therese and when i tell them no they think its weird. I love the meaning of Tessa. My dad calls me T and my friends either call me Tessa or Tess. Although my little sisters and brothers call me Tessie which i think its annoying but cute at the same time. I have never met another girl named Tessa but my parents know people who have named their kids Tessa. So i am really glad i have a unique name." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jun 13, 2009: "I am fifteen and my name is Tessa. Its a cute name and all but people seem to call me tereasa or tressa or tess. I hate when people misspronounce my name. I have grown to like me name when i was little i wanted to change my name to blythe or kathleen, but now its all okay. Now sometimes i still think about changing my name sometimes to my favorite two actresses either after sandra bullock or after selena gomez." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left May 02, 2009: "I was born in 1973 and my name is Tessa. I'm really not a big fan of the name, but it's better than being named Teresa! Ugh! It's very cool because I actually became very close friends with a Broadway star because HIS daughter's name is also Tessa. Our common name link brought us together and we've been friends ever since! It never fails, however that someone calls me Tressa or Teresa. How they manage to stick an "R" in the name, I'll never know!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Apr 19, 2009: "My daughter's name is Tess. You should have heard the yelling my mother did when I told her. She doesn't like it, but my husband and I love it. My mother refuses to call my daughter Tess and calls her Teresa instead. Any suggestions on how to 'fix' my mother?" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Mar 17, 2009: "My name is Tessa and I love it! I know 4 other girls named Tessa and we are atually really good friends! It sounds crazy but its true!!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 23, 2009: "My name is Tessa and I was born in 1981... to this date, I have met exactly two dogs and one other person named Tessa. i like, it, everyone knows who I am without having to say my crazy last name! Tessas of the world UNITE!!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Nov 11, 2008: "My name is Tessa and im okay with it. I do wish for other names though. Theyre is one other Tessa at my school and she's really mean so i dont like having the same name as her because people mix us up all the time." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 23, 2008: "My name's Tessa too and I was also born in the year 1993! Tessa is the most amazing name, though my cousins always tease me that my parents just "made it up," which really bugs me. I love how its just enough unique but also just enough popular. its perfect! I like it just Tessa though, not short for Teresa or Contessa." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 24, 2008: "if i have a daughter i plan on naming her tessa. it is cute and pretty, not too long of a name, and pretty unique. I have only met one other Tessa :) My name is Tira, which is also unique, and i love it. People are always complementing me, and i want my baby girl to feel like her name was special and picked out for her and only her." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Jun 04, 2008: "My name is Tessa!! ^_^ I simply love my name! Though sometimes people do a double-take with it because it's more on the rare side, I'd rather have a unique name than an over-used one! I was born in '93 and I've only met 1 other Tessa, who was 2 years older than me and changed schools. It's so cool; I'm the only Tessa in my high school!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Feb 24, 2008: "My name is Tessa and I am 10 years old. I have the coolest name in the world because it is unique and I don't have to share with half of my school. I think the name Tessa is awesome!" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 25, 2007: "I adore the names Tessa and Tess. So simply elegant. Not at all garish or pretentious. There is something quietly confident in this name. I have ever have a daughter, she's definitely going to be a Tessa/Tess." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 16, 2007: "I have a niece names Tessa. It is sweet and feminine. Easy to say, easy to spell and original. Very sweet name for a girl." (Report as inappropriate)
