Tamsin, Thomasina, Thomasin, Tamar or Tammy? (more)

It would fit in well with your other girls names actually. Maybe he might change his mind once she’s actually here?! ;)
I like both Tamar (ta-MAR, hate the TAY-mar pronunciation) & Thomasina.

Tamsin
From my understanding it's a bit dated in the U.K., but in the U.S. this would be a completely fresh choice.
Thomasin is a GP of mine, but I have a feeling most non-namenerds would look at it as "Thomas with -in attached."
Thomasina is quite long and OTT.
Tamara / Tammy is quite dated (in the U.S.).
And while Tamar is cool (I like it better than Tamara), the Biblical association... isn't the best.

Tamsin - I like it, although I prefer Tamsyn.
Thomasin / Thomasine / Thomasina - sorry, but I find them archaic (although I like them as a middle name)
Tamar - I thought this name was a masculine form of Tamara, but it sounds good on a girl. I only like the pronunciation ta-MAR.
Tammy - nice nickname for these names.
Tamara - my favourite. I only like the pronunciation ta-MAH-ra.

Tamar
I don't like the sound of "tam." I only like Tamar and Tamara when they are pronounced with an emphasis on the second syllable (ta-MAR and ta-MAR-a). Tamsin and Tammy I don't like at all because the "tam" is so prominent.
I think Tamar is lovely. Tamara has a little less gravitas. Both remind me of tamarind trees.
Thomasin, Thomasine, and Thomasina are very wholesome. My favorite is Thomasin.
