[name]Hi[/name] Berries,
Yeah, I’m smitten with [name]Thomasina[/name]. I’d like to get your thoughts - good or bad. What image do you get when you picture “[name]Thomasina[/name]?”
I love honest replies, but please don’t make me read something needlessly rude. Thank you!
I think its beautiful! A little much for the modern girl to handle, but I love [name]Eve[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name] from your signature. There’s something about the sound of it that sounds classic and a little steam punk to me. I can see her as the introverted girl who loves to read, or the lead singer in her own rock band.
I really love it! The first image that comes to me is a cat- cause of a Disney movie called The Many Lives of [name]Thomasina[/name] that I loved as a child! My second thought is a girl I went to school with who was gorgeous named [name]Tommie[/name] [name]Jo[/name] or [name]Thomasina[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]…maybe not too many girls could pull that off! I love [name]Thomasina[/name] with something lighter before or after it though. I think [name]Josephine[/name] feels a little tired & [name]Thomasina[/name] feels fresher.
[name]Thomasina[/name] [name]Lilou[/name]
[name]Thomasina[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]
I’m not sure. I like the sound of it, and it seems so British and ethereal, but I have to say I like the diminutive [name]Tamsin[/name] much more. When I think of [name]Thomasina[/name], I invariably think of [name]Lilly[/name] and [name]Thomasina[/name], two transgender children I read about a while ago–which is neither good or bad, just what I always think of. [name]Tamsin[/name] seems much sweeter to me, too, which is why I prefer it, I guess (and more feminine–[name]Thomasina[/name] is obviously a feminization of a traditional boys’ name!).
I do have to say, though, I love the [name]Eve[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name] combo I’ve seen in your signature for a while. 
Or [name]Eve[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name]! Didn’t notice that in your signature!
[name]Thomasina[/name] [name]Eve[/name] is lovely too!
I think it’s spunky. Though it seems a little awkward for me to add a “t” in there. Like Thomastina. That’s cause there is a town I grew up near called Thomastine. Anyways I think [name]Eve[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name] is a great name in your siggy. Are you considering moving [name]Thomasina[/name] to a fn or will you keep it in the mn spot?
It is too [name]OTT[/name] for me, and it reminds me of the mouse.
rollo
I know a woman who was named [name]Thomasina[/name], nicknamed [name]Tommy[/name]. There’s no gentle way to put this: she hated it. And I mean really, absolutely, thoroughly hated it. Everytime someone asked her what her name was she would give them a fake name - [name]Dawn[/name], [name]Cathy[/name], [name]Tracy[/name], etc. (She was about 6 at the time.) She was in elementary school when she found out she had a middle name - apparently it hadn’t come up! - and she has quite happily gone by it ever since. You have to keep in mind, though, that that was decades ago, when shorter, less frilly names were the norm.
I too loved the Disney movie featuring [name]Thomasina[/name] as the cat. I’ve always thought of [name]Thomasina[/name] as a proper and feminine option. And I actually think of it as more feminine than [name]Tamsin[/name]. But I would never use [name]Tommy[/name] as a nn for a daughter… Maybe [name]Tammie[/name] or [name]Tina[/name] or [name]Thea[/name]. I had [name]Thomasina[/name] on our name list and my hubs accused me of making it up. Lol.
I love it. It’s just… great! I also like [name]Thomasin[/name], but its a bit heavy on the [name]Thomas[/name].
I am diggin on [name]Thomasina[/name]. I love it in the first spot or the middle. It feels classic but forgotten. Underused and feminine and pretty. Good luck!
LOL, oh no, this is my worst fear realized! Seriously, I would be so sad if my daughter decided she hated her name.
nn [name]Tommy[/name] is not a plus for me. I may reach for something else, Masie, [name]Mina[/name], even [name]Nina[/name]? I like your suggestion of [name]Thea[/name], although I may reserve that for [name]Theodora[/name], which I also love! PS, I believe my husband may have accused me of making up [name]Thomasina[/name] initially too… Haha!
I like it, I think. [name]Thomas[/name] is so delicate as classic boys names go, and [name]Thomasina[/name] is even more delicate. Perhaps too delicate? Thumbelina-like? Of all your names, I think I like [name]Rosemary[/name] and [name]June[/name] most. The more time I spend on nameberry, the more I like simple, direct names. [name]Rosemary[/name] is such a great plant, and the smell of rosemary is powerful and sharp, unlike any other smell. [name]June[/name] is a name that transcends its month-ness. It’s so elegant and simple.
I went to high school with a [name]Thomasina[/name]. She wore it well & it never seemed like a strange name to me. I’ve always liked it.
I think [name]Tess[/name] or [name]Tessa[/name] totally work for [name]Thomasina[/name]
What movie?
[name]Love[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name]! Very steampunk, as someone else mentioned.
The Three Lives of [name]Thomasina[/name]. It’s an old one… And actually kind of weird. But I liked it as a child because the little girl from [name]Mary[/name] Poppins is in it. Ha.
I have to admit I too prefer the diminutive [name]Tamsin[/name] to [name]Thomasina[/name], it just feels a bit too much to me. Maybe it’s because I love [name]Thomas[/name] on a boy so much, I don’t know. Plus the nickname [name]Tommy[/name] doesn’t sound pretty to me on a girl at all. I think [name]Eve[/name] [name]Thomasina[/name] is a lovely combo though, it makes an interesting middle and I think you’ve got it spot on pairing it with something short and sweet.
If you did want to move it up front though, I’m sure I read a thread a few days ago about someone who knew a [name]Thomasina[/name] who went by [name]Tina[/name], which is another nickname option for you.
I love [name]Thomasina[/name]! My closest friend is Thomasena who goes by [name]Tom[/name] -and it really suits her- so that’s who I think of when I hear the name When some people first meet her they kind of double-take and think to themselves ‘[name]Tom[/name]? On a girl?’ but then it’s ‘Why the hell not?!’ It’s a lovely name that I’d love to see more often!
