Tonks:
Theresa is the little flower, the French one. And Teresa (without the 
h) is the Italian one, from Avila. The second is also one of only 2  
women who are given the title "Doctor of the Church". Teresa worked  
closely with St. John of the Cross, also a Doctor of the Church. Their 
speciality was Mystical Theology, which is a special interest of mine 
as well.
