It could be a weird female form of Tobiah?

I'm afraid not, Miss Claire. Probably just another example of two trends - give a girl a boy name in the hope that she'll magically acquire the 'masculine' characteristics of strength and power, and give a girl a boy name that ends in -y, -ie, -ey, -en and so on, on the assumption that these endings are reserved for girls because they often feature in abbreviations (Betty, Sally) or girl names (Susan, Helen).It's depressing. Scratch any American - OK, scratch most Americans, and you'll find a believer that Aubrey is a female name like Audrey. The Philistines are upon us, Samson - or should it be, Samsdaughter?

Yeah, I thought about that too, but I didn't want to sadden the person lol
Changing Tobiah into Toby doesn't make it feminine. It just turns "G-d is good" into something is "G-d is goo" LOL
