I'm always drawn to this name but worry its a bit 1980's. would Thomasina on the BC be better?

I like Tamsin. I don't think it's as dated as Sharon, Tracy or Donna, but it is maybe a little dated (will check out how its popularity has changed over time for you once I get home - am at work ). I'd be more inclined to use Tamara.

I think it's a lovely pretty name. I don't know any of any age.

Haha, 70's more like - Tamsin Gregg, Tamsin Althwait (sp)

It is a great name and but nearly everyone miss hears it as Tasmin and I never have worked out why

I love it too and would've used it but my dh doesn't like it.

I don't think of it as an eighties name. I think Tamsin is much nicer than Thomasina.

Lovely not lovey, sorry

I know 2 Tamsins and they are both in their 40s. It's a lovey name. Time for a revival!
