I was just looking at one of my posts, and I had to look up this name.

What do you think of Therese for a girl? What would you pair it with?

I think Therese is a pretty name. I'd probably pair it with something French like Francoise or Eugenie.

Therese is my grandmother's as well as my sister's and an aunt's middle name. Then one time, when I was at a restaurant with my aunt and uncle, our waitress was named Therese.

I think Therese is pretty, too.

I like Therese. I think it's elegant and not overdone. I would probably pair it with something long and elaborate.

I think Therese is very pretty. Theresa feels over done and stereotypical Italian American, in that every Italian American family has a Theresa and Gina and Tony in it.
Therese isn't used as much and has a more timeless, classic feel to it.

Makes me think "trees". Not necessarily a bad thing. I don't love the name but I don't have anything against it.

I like Therese a lot more than Theresa. I know several Theresa's in their 50's, and two Therese's who are both middle school/ high school aged. One goes by Reese sometimes with her family.
