IDK which sex it fits better- thinking of NN's is hard.  Tem is all I can come up with so I suppose it would be aimed more for a boy... 

Very unique name, but I just couldn't commit to it.

I am not sold on this name--it seems like you would only be able to give it to a tumultuous child, and to be frank, I don't really WANT a tumultuous child! 

I think maybe there should be a calmer nature name in lieu of Tempest..I personally like Sunny =)

this was on of the Cosby kids real names Tempest Bledsoe.  It was the middle girl.  I think her tv name was Vanessa
