What names to give Tess as a nickname?

I absolutely love the nickname Tess but struggling to find a longer name that I love for it.

We cant use Teresa as its my cousin's name. We like Therese (with accents that I cant do on here!!) but not sure.

Our other DC have 3 or 4 syllable names so we cant just use Tess, it wouldn't fit at all.

any ideas??

I'm chuckling at Tessica Grin Is that a real name

Surely it's Bess that's a diminutive of Elizabeth, not Tess - I never heard of that.

I have to say I'm baffled by some of the suggestions here, which seem to have no linguistic or phonetic associations with Tess.

Has anybody suggested Terpsichore? < gets coat >

Rosita?

Initials TES, known as Tess?
