I've posted my love of Veronica before, but it really is an awesome name. Of all the combos I made, I think my favorite was Veronica Maeve.

---

Tamsin... I'm not as keen on. Don't really like any "Tam" names (not fond of "Sam" either).

Tamsin is so 90s to me. I grew up with two Tammy's who had the full name Tamsin.

---

I wish I liked any nicknames for Veronica!

Veronica Julia
Veronica Maria
Veronica Jacqueline
Veronica Isabel
Veronica Lily
Veronica Fay
Veronica Margot
Veronica Fiera
Veronica Alice
Veronica Ruby

Tamsin Victoria
Tamsin Ruth

I like Tamsin a lot but Veronica sounds like an annoying person. Like a typical "popular villain" in a high school movie.

Tamsin Heather (I don't actually like the name Heather because it's common and dated, but I like the aesthetic of Tamsin and an English heath or something)

---

Tamsin also reminds me of Tanith.

---

As for nicknames, Tam is the only one I like. It sounds boyish but I can see it working. Just not Tammy. I can see Tassie maybe working but it's a bit of a stretch since it skips a consonant.

I like Tamsin more, simply because Veronica is more common.

Tamsin Eleanor
Tamsin Bellatrix

Veronica Helene
Veronica Calypso

I love Tamsin, but I don't like Veronica. Catchy song by Elvis Costello, though. ;)

I like both, but like Tamsin more. That's because, while Veronica is no doubt elegant and sultry, the "ron" syllable is a little off-putting to me. I'd be afraid to name a daughter Veronica because I wouldn't want her to be called Ronnie. And I believe that you can never be sure any intuitive nickname is 100% avoidable.

---

Then again, Tamsin might lead to Tammy ,,,,,,

---

I probably wouldn't actually use either, to be honest.

Adore Veronica (:

---

Veronica Lucy or Lucy Veronica is the first combo that springs to mind.

Love them both!

---

I wouldn’t pair either of them with another plant name or with each other, but other than that they’d go with just about anything.

Veronica is very nice. It's a fun, kind of sparkly name. Tamsin, not so much. It seems grim somehow.
