Seriously? You only like the name Thomas for a twin?? I don't think the majority of people even know name meanings and certainly not the millions of Thomases out there.

I know..I know plenty of Tom's myself, but I only like it on a a twin. It's a pet peeve of mine.
A bit like naming a child Cameron or Campbell is rude because of their ugly meanings.It's just me, but it's an opinions board too.-Seda*

I agree with Seda. I really like the name Thomas with the nn Tommy, but even if my son was a twin, I don't think I could use it because I think it's an insubstantial meaning. I actually read something, and I don't know how acurate it is, but it said that in Biblical times Thomas wasn't actually a name. It was just a nickname for a twin, just calling your sister "Sis" or your brother "bro" or a man's son "Junior", or, as it was, your twin "Thomas". Ever since I read that, Thomas has lost it's appeal.

Really? If you come across something saying that again, please call my attention to it. I'm going to call my twin sister that and see what she says. That's funny(accurate or not)!Also, if you did like Thomas for a child, would it bother you that there was only one name that meant twin? It bothers me because if I named one twin a name that meant "twin", I'd want to the other child's name to mean "twin" too. -Seda*
