I'd use it, although I think it's one of those things a future SO would likely veto. I am a bit of a science geek though, and one of my guilty pleasures is Faraday. In fact, I have a guilty pleasure twin set with Faraday and Tesla as second middle names. Which leads (obviously) to Maxwell for a boy. I think I once came up with about ten combo's before I got upset because I couldn't justify naming a kid Bohr, no matter how much I'd want people to think of Niels and not bore.

So yes, I like Tesla, I would associate it with the physicist, and that's a good thing.

Teratia's ok, but I prefer Teresa (either pron.) for the sound. Tertia's cool, although it would bring up the thought of "Are her sisters called Prima and Secunda?" But I like the sound, and I could get over the ordinal thing with familiarity.
