I know a Toma, she's Latvian and I quite like it.

I also know a Nigerian Tomi

I assumed it was pronounced Towmi not like Tommy …. so to rhyme with Toni as mentioned upthread

I know a girl called Tobi and another called Jamie . What about Toni ( Antonia ) .

No. I have an uncle Tommy and a cousin Tommy. It's absolutely a man's name.
