Tessa is a great name, honestly. While it started out as a nickname / diminutive (of Teresa / Theresa), it was different enough from the original that it became its own name (like Molly, Sadie, Jack, etc.). In years past I preferred just Tess, but now I find Tessa to be more substantial.

I doubt anyone could make any jokes based on Tessa. The only one I can think of would be related to a "test," and I think that would be a bigger problem for a Tess than a Tessa ("Tess will take the test, and so will everyone else!"). Then again, I suppose there's also the Barefoot Contessa cooking show to consider...
