HelpRe: Thoughts on various names
in reply to a message by anxiolytics
I like Catriona, Tressa and Georgia best.
Callista calls to mind calluses and blisters, Elektra gives me an image of someone in a skin-tight satin catsuit with blue hair and the other two just don't appeal much.
Tressa has always been a very unusual name in the UK, but it has a long history of use, so it doesn't seem flimsy to me, just interesting. Have you considered Tessa?

Hi Pie,
I had considered that Tessa was similar-but liked Tressa better. Tessa is FAR more common here in the US,I like it OK but wouldn't use it. it is a relief to know that Tressa is NOT made-up, and that it has history. It was the only one my DH picked off of my new list,then he gave me the go-ahead to call her whatever, as long as we don't change it formally (which can come later if this all works). Tressa was the only one he agreed to the formal change on, as I mentioned.
I KNEW something bothered me about Callista, I think you've hit the nail on the head (no pun intended).
So I came back to my original list....
