My dh really likes this name. I like it but don't really like giving nicknames without a longer name. Is it okay to just use Tess? I really dislike Tessa and Teresa, are there other names it could be short for?

You don't think it sounds unfinished or like a nickname? I just can't think if a longer version I like as much.

Oh I like it, like another said it's underused so likely won't be another in her class. Do it!! I like 'short names'
