Tobias

My best friend has this name so I'm most likely biased but it's an overall nice sounding name!

This name is really neat, and I can totally get behind all the different pronunciations, however you want to say the name. Regardless, the name looks and sounds really cool.

I don't like any pronunciations of this name.

I love how this name sounds and its nickname Toby.

I think it's really handsome and nice. I like it, one of my favorites. A nice combination would be Tobias Vincent. Also, the nickname Toby is cute.

Toby is a great nickname too. Cuter than Tobias, but still nice.

Handsome, masculine and strange.

Very classy and handsome.

My name is Tobias, and I like this name because it means God is Good. I thank my parents for giving me this name.

I find it very handsome.

My name is Tobias! I could list a lot worse than the name Tobias. I thank my parents (RIP) for the name all the time...

“Be Good - Do Good!”
― TOBIAS DAVIDSON.

I’ve named my first born son Tobias, after the Dutch Tobias Asser the founder of the international Peace Court in Hague, and winner of the Nobel prize for peace.
In Belgium and in the Netherlands this name is pronounced like “To’Bee-As” rather than “Toe-Bias” how it would be normally pronounced by an English speaker.
It’s a name that never gets old and is easy to remember.

Sounds like 'to buy us'.

Honestly makes me picture a younger man whom the ladies would all die for. I like it, and in my opinion I think it's a better alternative to the rather popular 'Toby.'

I love the name Tobias because of its own biblical meaning and history. My first son is Tobias.

My first girlfriend insisted she would name her son "Tobias." I made her watch all three seasons of Arrested Development in hopes of changing her mind.
I cannot hear "Tobias" without thinking of the Arrested Development character. Also my childhood dog was "Toby," which kind of limits that name's staying power.
I would never give my child this name, even if nobody else is making fun of him, I feel like I am whenever I feel the urge to call him by name.

I love this name! It's not overused, and it suits people of all ages. Toby is a great nickname in my opinion :)

I love this name! Especially the biblical meaning behind it and the fact that it is uncommon in the United States. My son, Tobias Judah will be born December 2017.

What a great man and boy's name. I hope it gets used more often in the future because Toby is a great nickname :-)

Named my son Tobias in 2000. Now he's in high school and loves his name because of its uniqueness. He's grown up with the nickname Toby.

Tobias is my last name. I've always loved my last name, as it has always stood out among the Smiths and Leonards and whites and Browns of the crowds.

My family is of Czech descent and the name dies with my sister and I, so I will be using it as a first name for my "son" (hoping I have one!)

I found this name after reading the divergent series. Love this name and nickname Toby.

A gorgeous, masculine, and distinctive name with a long history of use. I love that it's not very common in the US, but don't love the religious aspect or the nickname Toby that much. Tobias Menzies is a wonderful English actor from the Outlander TV show.

The name Tobias has grown on me. I wasn't sure if I liked it at first but after saying this name again and again I now LOVE this name! It's classy, handsome and pretty refreshing, actually. :)

Baby boy due Dec 2014 will be Tobias. Husband and I love it!

Baby boy due Sept 2014. He will be Tobias.

My younger brothers name is Toby; named after my father's best friend who died of cancer. I just love this name. It's sweet and boyish but it's nice and professional for an adults name. If I have children I would like to name my son Toby.

I'm not a huge fan of this name. Seeing it for the first time, it's easy to mispronounce, and it also blatantly has the word 'bias' right at the end of it.

I am in love with the name Tobias. 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 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.

This is such a good name! It sounds so nice, has a wonderful meaning, and I like the nickname Toby.

I'm glad to hear so many people like this name because I do too!

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.

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.

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.

I love this name, it is a formal name for an adult and for a boy, his nickname could be "Tobi," which I think sounds great as well.

My sister wants to name her first son Tobias. I really like it, it's a timeless classic! Although I don't really like the nickname Toby, I prefer Tobias. Some names are good the way they are, they don't need a nickname.

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.

Tobias is a really strong name. I like it very much. I hate Toby however. It grates on my ears and I don't know why.

This is such a cool name! I adore it. It's strong, timeless and not overused.

Tobias is a great name for a boy, I also like the name Tobin.

I like the meaning of this name.

A nicer sounding name than Tobiah.
