About Tomlin

This Medieval diminutive of the classic Thomas has a slight playful air and a sweet feel to it, but also fits in with surname-style choices like Lincoln and Collins. Yet to feature in the US stats, if Macklin and Franklin work, could Tomlin be worth consideration?

Tomlin for girls

A cosy Medieval diminutive of the classic Thomas, Tomlin might just work for those honoring a Thomas but don't enjoy Tamsin or Thomasina. Typically, albeit rarely, used as a masculine name, it has never featured in the US charts, though TV personality Nick Viall and his wife Natalie Joy chose Tomlin as a middle name for one of their twin daughters, Dove Tomlin, born in 2026.

Pronounced TOM-lin.
