Tom 1

Tom is also a common name in modern Hebrew (mainly for boys, but also for girls). It has no record in the Old-Testament, so it was probably taken from Latin Thomas/Tom. However, it wasn't taken for no reason: the word "Tom" in Hebrew means "Purity" (of the heart), or "Naivety" which makes it perfect for a child. But, It also means "End" or "Edge" which gives it a rather disturbing meaning...
