Personal experiences with the name Tansy: | Edit

My sister's name is Tansy-Rose (Tansy for short) and it is the most perfect name for her. She is unique, strong, and beautiful. I think that very few people can pull off her name but our mother did an amazing job naming us all and she definitely hit it on the nose naming Tans. According to my mum, she just "felt" like a Tansy before she was born. My father put up quite a bit of fuss at the hospital, insisting that she needed a middle name and that Rose did not need to be hyphenated but my mother won, of course, and I have a sister with a weird and awesome name =)

I love my name! It is a beautiful name and i am proud to carry it! It is a good converstation starter! and it is nice to be unique
