Thank you, you wonderful people, for putting up with endless angst from me over this baby's name! Our first dd was so easy! We've decided on Tasmin Angelica. Phew.

I love the name Tasmin. Taz is cute. And I loved that song by tasmin archer!

Bringmewineandcake · 18/02/2018 15:00

I know of 2 Tasmins, I like it!
Well done on making your decision OP Smile

Cosmoa · 18/02/2018 14:56

I know of more Tasmin's! And I'm in the UK... It's a lovely choice!

Tasmin is ace.

LOVED this song by Tasmin Archer

I'll never under why people on mumsnet are so harsh about names that someone's picked for their baby, it's such a personal decision and everyone has different tastes!

It's a valuable service Grin on here, you get the honest response. And a. it's not yet your baby's name, and it's only a good thing if people critique it as they may throw up something you hadn't considered and will kick yourself for later and b. it's all anonymous and we'll never meet you or your baby!

People here aren't horrid, they're honest. In a way no-one in real life will ever be about your choice of baby names!

FizzyGreenWater · 18/02/2018 13:48

She will be called Tamsin by everyone though-! and will spend her life correcting it. Argh are you sure?

I know two Tamsins and they have NEVER been called Tammy.

Op ignore the stupid comments, I'm pleased you've found a name you love. Good luck with little baby Tasmin Smile

ChocolateCrunch · 17/02/2018 20:56

I like it. Reminds me of the song Sleeping Satellite by Tasmin Archer.

Rainbowsandflowers78 · 17/02/2018 18:40

June - are you in the uk? Tasmin sounds like an Australian name maybe?

junebirthdaygirl · 17/02/2018 18:26

I have often heard of Tasmin..not that unusual and a lovely name. Including Angelica after her Grandma is reaally nice.

Afternoon · 17/02/2018 18:24

Lovely choice OP. Tasmin reminds me of Tasmin Little the violinist, and I also like Angelica 🙂

bettydraper31 · 17/02/2018 18:16

Your choice is lovely OP! You’re never going to please everyone, thank goodness! I wish we had decided, it’s so difficult! Best of luck to you OP.

Like it, congrats!

BendydickCuminsnatch · 17/02/2018 16:15

Darcy why are you assuming it's a double barrelled name? Odd.

happytobemrsg · 17/02/2018 14:30

It's so hard choosing a name & virtually impossible to choose one everyone likes (I speak from experience!!). I'm glad you have found a name you love

Naillig222 · 17/02/2018 14:24

I’ve never heard the name Tamsin. Tasmin is much nicer.

Darcychu · 17/02/2018 14:22

Tasmin Angelica as a first name???

Why on earth would you include the Angelica , not only is it a horrid name but it also does not belong in a double barrelled name.

SheGotBetteDavisEyes · 17/02/2018 14:20

I have heard of Tasmin, I knew one about 30 years ago! Glad you've decided OP.

SleepFreeZone · 17/02/2018 14:17

You know she faces a lifetime of being called Tamsin😬

AnyaMoondial · 17/02/2018 14:14

Tasmin is gorgeous, much prefer it to Tamsin. Congratulations!

Rainbowsandflowers78 · 17/02/2018 11:49

Glad you’ve found a name you love

Rainbowsandflowers78 · 17/02/2018 11:48

Can you spell it tazmin? Might stop the confusion?
