I say TEE-gən and it just reminds me of
Tegan &
Sara. (If not for
Tegan &
Sara I probably would just dislike it. But it is definitely better than
Teagan.)
I think it's okay as a tomboy name, but it might be dated in the US. There's a category of mostly-androgynous 90's names like
Tegan,
Teagan,
Fallon,
Jordan,
Morgan,
Megan,
Reagan,
Taryn, etc. that all seem dated as a group.
In the US I think
Tegan is a little dated and
Tamsin is old-fashioned in a good way (not popular enough to be classic, but not dated either. It feels more like a fantasy character name).
Tamsin probably feels different in the UK though.
