When I say Tobias, you think....

As title says.

Not particularly looking for opinions on likeability, but what comes to mind if you hear the name Tobias?

And do you read/pronounce it TOW-BEE-AS or TO-BIAS?

Thanks :)

To-bias
This is dds friends name. His mum is Czech where I'm told this is a popular name. He is cute, it's a great name x

Toe-bye-us
Tobias and the Angel from the Apocrypha.
Oliver Tobias
Toby Mangel from Neighbours who was cute.
Good name.

Toe- bias

Makes me think smouldering 70s actors...

Baby Toby

I'd think of Tobias/Four from divergent trilogy too, though a few more of him wandering around wouldn't be a bad thing!

Somebody who still lives with his mum at 40.

(Sorry)

Don't like it. Much prefer Toby.

Toe-bye-ass

And Leroy Jethro Gibbs.

Tobias Wolfe, American author who wrote "This Boy's Life", which I loved.

Also love the name as well but ex vetoed it

Thanks all :) much appreciated!

Seems the consensus is its a posh name or wannabe posh name. And possibly middle aged man. That's fine, I don't mind that!

Toe bye us.
From the Tim and tobias nooks I read at school.

Really like it but only if pronounced Tow-be-aas, I can't bear the other pronounciation. Considered this for DS but disregarded it as I knew most people here would pronounce it To-bias. DH is German and if we lived there we may well have gone with it! Not too keen on Toby as nn but could probably live with it. I would say it sounds pretty middle class rather than ultra posh.

I have s Nephew called this, ta popular with those that would choose the likes of Sebastian, or Florence.

It's the name of a cartoon character on the Amazing world of Gumball and its a popular name amongst "Alternative", Emo/Goth youngsters, when naming pets, Sims etc.

Just to add, I've heard it out and about in my city and we're WC Liverpool.

My cat! Lol. Although I regret calling him Tobias as I would have used it for a ds

An act on Britain's Got Talent a few years ago. But my memory is awesome

I think wet. As is Toby, a man who cannot form an opinion or make a decision...
