Hi all,
What do people think of the name Toby? My husband loves it and it's not a common name here in holland (35 last year). I was just put off by a few comments from people in UK that it's a dogs name! ???
Thanks
Annabelle

I absolutely love it! i really like Tobias too. TBF my granny did have a dog called Toby about 20 years ago but I would never associate it with a dog now - can't remember the last time I heard of a dog called Toby1
