Talk:Thomas (name)

Origin of Name edit

Could the name not come from the Greek θαυμα or θωμα in the Ionic dialect, meaning "wonder" or "marvel?" This is what I always assumed the origin was.

Vandalism edit

This was at the bottom I don't think anyone blames me for removing it "* Gibberish language:eopfmoemfsef (pronounced Tomdom!!!!!Woo!!!Thats Meee)" --Tomvasseur (talk) 15:20, 17 November 2008 (UTC)Reply


I think that the word comes from the aramaic language, but not used for a name. It is the greek word θωμας as a transkription from the aramaic being used to call persons. --89.210.112.132 (talk) 21:07, 15 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

King Thomas edit

Just curious. I couldn't find any reference to a king with the name Thomas. Plenty of dukes, at least one prince (Prince Thomas, Duke of Genoa), but hasn't there ever been a King Thomas? TomS TDotO (talk) 12:09, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
