I have a friend whose name is Tansy and I think it is beautiful, but I also think that you have to be a certain kind of person or the name can be to much.
"Tansy", a boy, is the hero of one of Gail Carlson Lavine's novels. In the book, Tansy is a misunderstood prince that falls in love with a girl called "Parsley".
Tansy (Tan-zee) is a sweet little bunny character in the children's book The Surprising Armchair by Jean Gilder. I fell in love with the name reading the book as a child and now read it to my children.
In the movie Material Girls starring Hilary and Hailey Duff, Hilary plays a character named Tanzie, (spelled differently, but the same name.)

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. Later she becomes the Abbess, and she is in this position during The Long Patrol. She made me like the name Tansy.
