Tavish

Scottish variation of Thomas
"twin"

Tavish Origin and Meaning

The name Tavish is a boy's name of Scottish, Aboriginal origin meaning "twin".

This Scottish form of Thomas has a lot of charm, evoking images of men in plaid kilts playing the bagpipes. As for the 'ish' ending, it could either be seen as cozy and hamish, or a little wishy-washyish.

Bottom line: If you're looking for a similar name with more worldly appeal than Travis or an offbeat namesake for an ancestral Thomas, you could do well to consider Tavish.
