My middle name is Thomas, but I go by Tommy. Compared to Thomas, Tommy is a little more playful and less formal. I personally really like this name. It’s classic, but not overly common, it just rolls off the tongue so nicely. I’m proud to be a Tommy.

I really like this name as a full name. If I were to name someone perhaps I would go with Thomas for a legal name but I prefer Tommy as a name and I think it's cute. It's strong and masculine and very sweet.

I think Tommy is actually a good full name. It reminds me of a cute teddy bear. If you were older you could always shorten it to Tom. If you don't like either there's nothing wrong with Thomas, however that reminds me of trains and hummus dip.

This is terrible as a full name. Please give your child an option. Who would want to introduce himself as Tommy at the age of 35? It's embarrassing. There's nothing wrong with Thomas. He won't stay little forever.

This name is not always THOMAS in full, some people are named only TOMMY alone. This name can be given without having to think about it, before even thinking out a name for your your child, this name can come to mind easily.
