Hi all

Not looking for opinions on the name, just a sense of how popular Toby is in your area and the age of those children with the name. For example are there several babies called Toby that you know or several children called Toby in your DC's nursery/class at school?

Thanks in advance Smile

I have a Toby (3) but don't know of any other children with the name. I know of three adults, one of which is a GP.

Quite a lot in my area, primary school aged. Haven't met any little/baby ones recently though.

I have a Y1 one who appears to be the only one in his school, and I know of another slightly smaller one locally and another aged 4ish where we used to live in Essex.

It’s a great name 😄

(These are children around 7-8 I should have said - I know adult Tobys as well)

I know a couple of Tobys - one in DC’s class, one outside school. Neither unusual nor excessively popular.
