My name is Tansy (Tan-zee), and I absolutely love it! I've never met another person with my name, which I also love.
I will say that I struggled with it a bit as a younger child, but then I grew up during the 00's when more unusual names were less common than today. But now as a 26 y/o, I wouldn't change my name for the world. I get many, many compliments and positive comments about it.
I'll add that the Medieval connotations of the herb Tansy have never bothered me, and that I don't personally see it as a "cutesy" name - more interesting/different.
Wimpy.
At a glance I assumed ‘tanacita’ meant something along the lines of “tenacity”, but looking into it, it actually stems from the Ancient Greek ‘athanasia’, meaning “immortality” or “undying”.
It’s a very whimsical name. Cute.

Well, it's better than Pansy. Though I'm not sure how much.
I love this name. It isn't overused like other flower names. :)
It's not as horrible as Pansy, but it sounds too much like it. The name sounds too girly anyway, and I can't picture it on a grown-up.
In Redwall, there's a hedgehog named Tansy. She's in Pearls of Lutra and The Long Patrol. In Pearls of Lutra, she has to find six pearls called the Pearls of Lutra as a ransom for the Abbot.
