No. Peter Tobin.
It's a nice enough name...but Peter Tobin. So no.

How about Torin instead?

No, sounds like toe+bin

I actually really dislike surname first names! Didn't put 2 and 2 together with this one that it was a surname. And such a shit one!

Going against the grain here to say I love it - we're considering it too - but I don't live in the UK so the hope is the serial killer issue won't arise. I think it gives Toby a more grown up twist, is quirky but not completely batty, and I prefer it to Tobias.

Named after a tax ?

Not sure about Tobin, but I quite like Torin and Tobias.

Serial killer

Love it. Cute but works for adult too. I've heard of the serial killer but wouldn't make the connection and still don't now it's even mentioned.

He's the slightly creepy night manager in Gilmore Girls who wants Michel's job.
