I'm not a fan. I wouldn't scream and run away, but I wouldn't use it either.

I had a colleague once who was known as Tessa. Her actual name was Tersia, which works OK in Afrikaans, and she was indeed her parents' third daughter. They'd had a boy name ready, but felt let down and flustered and just went for Tersia: but, she said, the more they got to know her and love her, the more Tersia turned into Tessa!
