I don't like it but I don't hate it... I'd prefer Tobias but Tobin isn't so bad

Yip serial killer was my first thought too, sorry. But perhaps not known outside Scotland?

Nope, makes me think of the murderer. Tobias instead?

Also know it as the surname of a serial killer from near here and that's what immediately comes to mind. I don't like it at all.
