I like the name, but I am a little concerned about the fact that it is Biblical, and Biblical names in general are pretty much a turn-off for me.-- violetagate 6/19/2007

I've always loved the name Tobias, and the only experience I've had in meeting one was great too. Most people don't seem to like the nickname Toby though which I don't understand because I like that as well, it makes the name less formal and the people bearing it more approachable.-- Fluffy_Thewerewolf. 6/30/2008
When I told my friend that if I ever had a baby boy I would name him Tobias, she started to laugh at me and said "That poor kid!" But I don't care, and will have to agree with most of the comments here; Tobias is a wonderful name, and the fact that not many people have it makes it even better. I think some good pet names would be Toby, Tobe, or Tobes.-- MariCami104 8/4/2008

It's funny; I used to think this was a really weird name, but now I adore it! It's so masculine, intelligent and amazing. Simply amazing. Any boy would be lucky to have this name. During his childhood, he could call himself Toby.-- Emilie Autumn Fan 8/29/2008

I also think this is rather a lovely name, and Toby is a great nickname. :)-- walesgal92 8/15/2010
This is such a good name! It sounds so nice, has a wonderful meaning, and I like the nickname Toby.-- Liesl 1/28/2011
I first came across this name in the Animorphs series and at the start, it felt quite an unusual name, but it's definitely grown on me since and now I find it's a really nice, strong and natural-feeling name. One of my favourites.
A side-effect though of first finding this name from Animorphs (as previously mentioned as the boy who's stuck as a falcon) I will always associate this name with flying.-- Catsafari 3/12/2011
I am in love with the name Tobias. I was with my little nephew, 5, and little niece, then 2, and during the tv show they watched, my mind was wandering into the baby names territory. I thought Tobias is such a great name; too bad it is not popular in Hungary. (I like popular names.) I would totally give it, and by now, I do not even care if Tobias is not popular in Hungary (yet?). :) It is such a cute name! (I also love Anna for a girl!)-- Anonymous User 12/19/2011
Tobias Harris is a professional American basketball player.-- Anonymous User 3/20/2012
