Dp has finally suggested a name - unsure

We're having a girl, and I've told him that I have given up because every name I suggest, he vetoes.

He text me at work earlier with a suggestion, but I'm undecided because of how it sounds.

The name is Tia Nicole. Nicole being the middle name, which for some reason has always been the middle name no matter what first name is suggested.

Does Tia make people think 'Tear'? Or if it wasn't mentioned, wouldn't it cross your mind?

We haven't decided on this yet btw, just looking for opinions first on the above dilemma

There's Tia Carrera (Wayne's World). But it's not her real name.

Yeah it's a real name Mutt To be honest I've never known, or heard of a Tia. Probably why it's caught my eye.

To me, sounds a bit too much like Tia Maria Nicole is nice though

Tia does indeed mean 'aunt' - don't know if that bothers you, though.

Doesn't ring my bell but it's your baby!

Argh, I've just read on a site that it has no real meaning, but is linked to 'aunt' in Spanish.

I don't like it, sounds a bit Page 3. Nicole is nice but Tia sounds made up. Doesn't it mean old/aunt in Spanish?
