I've fallen in love with this oddity of a name. I think it's chiefly associated with royals (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tassilo), and while I find it distinguished, it also sounds friendly and approachable to me. What do you think?

Combos, duh:

Tassilo Henry Victor
Tassilo Arthur
Tassilo Simon
Tassilo Bernard
Tassilo Felix
Tassilo Rupert
Tassilo Martin
Tassilo Giles
Tassilo Ethan
Tassilo Robert
Tassilo Herbert
Tassilo Roger
Tassilo Gerard
Tassilo Peter
Tassilo Anselm
Tassilo Aubrey
Tassilo Conrad
Tassilo Rufus
Tassilo Percy
Tassilo Max
Tassilo Ivan
Tassilo Yves
Tassilo Walter
Tassilo Winthrop
Tassilo Wyeth
Tassilo Edmund / Edmond
Tassilo Edwin
Tassilo Edgar
Tassilo Everett
Tassilo Emmett
Tassilo Bennett
Tassilo Idris
Tassilo Sidney
Tassilo Frederick
Tassilo Quentin
Tassilo Arnold
Tassilo Siegfried
Tassilo Sigmund
Tassilo Anton
Tassilo André
Tassilo Hervé
Tassilo Marcus
Tassilo Marcel
Tassilo Hubert
Tassilo Wilfrid

I'm pronouncing it TASS-ih-lo in my head, and I like it. Of your combos, I like Tassilo Simon, Tassilo Peter, and Tassilo Marcus best.

Sounds badass. I like it.

I like the combo with Conrad. Maybe even better if it's Konrad.

Don't like it at all

I actually like it a lot. It sounds youthful and boyish. Pronunciation holds me back a bit…tass-ih-lo? Tazz-ih-lo (Wiki says derived from Tasso / Tazzo), tass-ee-lo? I like the first two the best.

I like Henry, Felix, Robert, and Frederick with it.

It's so lyrical. And what a beautiful meaning it has!

Is it "tass-EE-lo" or "TASS-ih-lo"?

I don't normally care for the name Marcus, but Tassilo Marcus seems very striking.

I like it! I'd never heard of it before. It's distinguished, like you say, but I think it also sounds a bit... exotic?

Out of you combo's, I like:

Tassilo Arthur
Tassilo Robert (this is probably my favorite)
Tassilo Roger
Tassilo Peter
Tassilo Edmund / Edmond
Tassilo Edgar
Tassilo Idris
Tassilo Marcel
