ha ha ha ha, just read this thread out to DH because he MASSIVELY vetoed Tamsin for my DD. She would have been Tamsin. DH cannot stand Tamsin Outhwaite, so put his foot down. I'm expecting again in August and DH has said if it's a girl he'll 'let' me call her Tamsin.

So yay, Tamsin gooooooooood!

I really like Tamsin.

Nay nay nay nay nay. No. I think it's really 80s.

But Tamzin Outhwaite is really really nice. I used to know her, a long time ago in a different life.

I really like Tamsin, Tasmin and Tamara, but really dislike Tammy.

Tammy reminds me of a Barbie doll for some reason.

Do like Tamsin though.

I like Tamsin, but prefer the Cornish spelling (Tamsyn). Think Thomas Hardy used Tamsin.

I love Tamsin. It was the name of my much missed cat.

If DS had been a DD I was seriously considering Tamsin as a middle name, but DH thought it would cause trouble if I called a baby after a cat instead of a relative.

But I liked my cat much more than the relatives.
