Isn't that when you get constant ringing in your ears?

I like it!

I know a Tineke, it's Dutch I believe. It's ok, easy to say, bit different.

Tineka tikarum(sp) springs to mind. One hit wonder in the 90's.

No, don’t like it

Tan-i-ka? Might be better spelt tan rather than tin?

Unusual. I know Annika and Danika s but never heard of Tinika.

How is it pronounced? (I'd assume TIN-e-ka). Are you happy to constantly correct people if they get it wrong? Also I'd probably make assumptions about the ethnicity of the person with that name because imo it isn't generic like (for example) Sarah.

How is it pronounced? In my head it's 'tiny car'

No... It's too....sharp? Thalia is much nicer and flows better (imo)
