Personal experiences with the name Tomasa: | Edit

1. My mother's name is tomasa.i think this name is very unique nd uncommon..when people ask what her name is, some people make a wierd face like "what the heck" haha.because they've never heard it before,nd that's why I like it(:
most likely I'm going to name my daughter after her (middle name tho)

2. I was the second born of twins - sister's name, Teresa, had already been chosen and I was a total surprise (back in 1964 when the sex of a baby or a multiples could not be positively determined). My father had a favorite great-aunt by the name of Tomasa, it meant "twin", and rhymed with Teresa. What other name could they have chosen?! Somehow, I think a lot more thought went into my name than my sister's... I have always loved my name, especially since I have never met anyone else with it. My nicknames (ugh) have been: Tome (w/accent mark over "e"- that is a family nickname), Tommi, Tommie, Tom & Tom-Tom. Since they are just nicknames, I don't mind how people spell those!
