This is the name of my first son. It suits him to a T. We chose it before he was born and for some reason he came out ginger. Hehe, bit of a coincidence.
The word "Tod" literally translates to the word "Death" in German.

The reason I named my dog Todd was because he was hunting and catching crickets in the field when we found him, and that made me think of the little hound-dog "Copper" from "The Fox and the Hound". But I didn't like the name Copper so I named him Todd after the fox instead.
I think this is a wonderful name, because I had a friend named Todd who was a very nice person and when I hear the name, I think of him, so I think the name is great!
This has always sounded like the name of idiotic macho guys, or ever since the 90s, when I watched Beavis and Butthead, and this was the name of such a guy, anyway. I don't know why, but it just doesn't sound very intelligent.
Fabulous name. I'm a little biased because it's my husband's name. He fits his name well. "Todd" is concise but strong sounding, it's a name that doesn't need to go on and on. That's how he is. Very intelligent, a strong leader, but he can be gentle and kind as well.
It's funny how short names like Todd end up getting enlongated for nickname's sake. He's had people close to him call him "Todd-o", "Todder", etc., though he doesn't care much for any of those nicknames. :)
My husband also gets many [somtimes unwelcome] nicknames from me, his friends, and his family. Ex: Toddzilla, Toddness, Todd the Bod, Toddle, Odd Todd, and in grade school, for some reason "Toddy Potty". Definitely the most unappreciated.
My husband and I were debating last night whether "Todd" was short for anything. I thought maybe it was short for "Theodore" or something like that. Guess he was right! By the way, neither of us like this name all that much. It's a little boring.
I'm not that keen on this name. It's sadly been over-Americanised, in my opinion, but I like the 'fox' meaning. And a famous bearer of this name is a character from the Beatrix Potter series of children's books, who is named Mr. Tod. He is a fox in The Tale of Mr. Tod. The only difference is it is obviously spelt with one d, but I thought it appropriate to put it here, because they both mean the same thing.
Todd the Wraith from Stargate Atlantis, played by Christopher Heyerdahl. Given the character's personality, I think Sheppard picked a very appropriate name for him.
I have always thought of a hot, brown haired dude who is a jock and wears a lot of green and has a great white smile and is very nice.. when I hear this name :) Good name!
I don't recommend this name. My ex-boyfriend's name was Todd and he caught all kinds of grief. I think this name is best to stay back in the 1970s and early 1980s.
This is my middle name, and I hate it! It's the first syllable of toddler or an odd kind of toad. It sounds like it should be a word. This combined with a too-popular first name are why I want to change my name.
A famous bearer is Todd Haberkorn (b. August 16, 1982) who is an American voice actor who has provided the dub voices for anime and video games. He's well-known for his roles in the dubs of Fairy Tail, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Baccano!, Ouran High School Host Club, and many others.
